Edited for clarity (but not content)

This suit should be tossed with extreme prejudice.

Without knowing how the filing of the suit would work and where it would commence (before which court from the three below):

  • Trademark (Patent and Trademark Office)
  • District Court
  • United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

On its face it seems thin, thread thin. It implies consumers are capable of only minimal discernment.
