Mealey's (April 9, 2019, 12:53 PM EDT) -- RICHMOND, Va. — In an April 5 order, the Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals rejected efforts by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to undo a February divided holding that trademark applications by Booking.com are not generic; the same day it denied en banc rehearing, however, the panel stayed its mandate requiring Booking.com to reimburse the USPTO its attorney fees, pending resolution of Iancu v. NantKwest, Inc., No. 18-801, (U.S. Sup.), by the U.S. Supreme Court (Booking.com v. Andre Iancu, Nos. 17-2458, -2459, 4th Cir., 2019 U.S. App. LEXIS 10191)....
