Trademark Law

"Guide to TTAB Practice provides in-depth analysis of the procedural and substantive issues that arise in proceedings before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board: (a) opposition proceedings, (b) cancellation proceedings, (c) concurrent use proceedings, and (d) ex parte appeals. There is also an extensive treatment of trademark appeals filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit."

"The TBMP provides stakeholders with basic information generally useful for litigating trial cases before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB). The manual describes current practice and procedure under the applicable authority, including the Trademark Act, the Trademark Rules of Practice, the Federal Rules (where applicable), and precedential case law."

The TMEP is the primary resource for information about the trademark examination process and "is published to provide trademark examining attorneys in the USPTO, trademark applicants, and attorneys and representatives for trademark applicants with a reference work on the practices and procedures relative to prosecution of applications to register marks in the USPTO. The Manual contains guidelines for Examining Attorneys and materials in the nature of information and interpretation, and outlines the procedures which Examining Attorneys are required or authorized to follow in the examination of trademark applications."

Also known as the Brown Book, the Manual explains the procedures and laws involved in filing applications for trademarks, designs, and patents in over 230 jurisdictions.

Includes more than 3,000 law and law-related periodicals.
