Supreme Court Rejects California Lawyer's 'Trump Too Small' Trademark Bid in First Amendment Case
Jun 13, 2024, 02:53 PM
The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled against a California lawyer's attempt to trademark the phrase 'Trump Too Small.' The court found that the government's refusal to register the trademark does not violate the First Amendment. The decision was unanimous, although the justices were divided on the reasoning behind the ruling. The case, Vidal v. Elster, involved a trademark application for a phrase used to criticize former President Donald Trump. The court upheld the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's decision, emphasizing the restriction on using another's name in a trademark without consent. Justice Thomas authored the opinion. The trademark was intended for use on T-shirts and hats.
