Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the extraordinary review against the Patent Office's decision to invalidate a registered 3D trademark. The applicant argued the shape lacked distinctiveness, while the Patent Office held it was merely a functional building block toy. The court ruled that such a form lacks primary distinctiveness and cannot acquire secondary distinctiveness, thus failing trademark registration requirements.
