The case that has drifted on

On February 24, 2017, the US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit affirmed the decision of the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia in Treadwell Original Drifters v Original Drifters. Here, the doctrine of issue preclusion was used to rely on a prior Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) decision to grant a motion for summary judgment based on the 2015 Supreme Court ruling in B&B Hardware v Hargis Industries.
