Reminder: TTABlog Road Trip: 2015 Midwest IP Institute - Minneapolis, September 17-18th

Yours truly, the TTABlogger, will be back on the road in September, heading the Blogmobile west and north to Minneapolis for the 2015 Midwest Intellectual Property Institute on September 17 and 18, 2015. Details and registration information may be found in this brochure.

On the trademark side, the program will feature TTAB Chief Judge Gerard F. Rogers, who will discuss recent TTAB-related developments such as the B&B v. Hargis decision and possible rule changes. Judge Rogers will also appear on a panel with Carrie Hefte of Wells Fargo, Scott Johnston of Merchant & Gould, and yours truly, of Wolf, Greenfield & Sacks in Boston.

Fellow Blogger Steve Baird of Winthrop and Weinstine will team up with me to discuss "the year in trademark law," including some insights into the REDSKINS and FLANAX cases now wending their way through the appeal process, and a rundown of the more interesting and/or impactful recent decisions of the TTAB.
