Advertisement
Grasshopper Manufacturing Company Limited appeals from the decision of the United States Patent and Trademark Office Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, dated January 11, 1989, sustaining The Keds Corporation's opposition No. 73,140 to Grasshopper's registration of the term GRASSHOPPER (and design) for babies' and children's clothing, application Serial No. 506,633, filed November 1, 1984. Having reviewed the board's opinion and the record, we discern no legal or factual error and agree with the board that Keds carried its burden of proving likelihood of confusion. Accordingly, we affirm on the basis of the board's opinion.
