Midwestern Pet Foods, Inc. v. Societe Des Produits Nestle S.A., 2011-1482
In an appeal from the decision of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board denying registration of its mark, WAGGIN' STRIPS, the Board's decision is affirmed where: 1) substantial evidence supports the Board’s finding of a likelihood of confusion between Midwestern's WAGGIN' STRIPS mark and the registered BEGGIN' STRIPS mark owned by Nestle; and 2) the Board committed no reversible procedural error in admitting evidence submitted by Nestle.
