United States Federal Circuit
M.Z. Berger & Co., Inc. v. Swatch AG, 14-1219
In a trademark dispute over the mark "iWatch" he Trademark Trial and Appeals Board (TTAB) decision is affirmed where substantial evidence supports its determination that at the time of application, plaintiff lacked a bona fide intent to use the mark in commerce under Section 1(b)(1) of the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. section 1051(b)(1), and instead merely intended to reserve a right in the mark and thus lacked the requisite intent.
