INTEREST OF AMICUS CURIAE1
The Intellectual Property Law Association of
Chicago (“IPLAC”) respectfully requests that this
Court affirm the Fourth Circuit’s decision in
Booking.com B.V. v. United States Patent &
Trademark Office, 915 F.3d 171 (4th Cir. 2019).2
Founded in 1884 in Chicago, Illinois, a principal
forum for U.S. technological innovation and
intellectual property litigation, IPLAC is the country’s
oldest bar association devoted exclusively to
intellectual property matters. IPLAC has as its
governing objects, inter alia, to aid in the development
of intellectual property laws, the administration of
them, and the procedures of the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office, and the
U.S. courts and other officers and tribunals charged
with administration. IPLAC’s about 1,000 voluntary
members include attorneys in private and corporate
practices in the areas of copyrights, patents,
trademarks, trade secrets, and the legal issues they
present before federal courts throughout the United
States, as well as before the U.S. Patent and

represents a party to this litigation in this matter; (b) no
representative of any party to this litigation participated in the
authorship of this brief; and (c) no one other than IPLAC, or its
members who authored this brief and their law firms or

The United States Patent and Trademark Office
(“USPTO”) denied the applications, finding that
BOOKING.COM was generic for the services offered
or, in the alternative, that the mark was descriptive
and that Booking.com had failed to show the mark
had acquired distinctiveness.
The Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (“TTAB”)
of the USPTO affirmed, finding that BOOKING.COM
comprises a generic second-level domain (“SLD”) and
“.com,” a top-level domain (“TLD”) that means a
commercial website. In effect, the TTAB concluded
that BOOKING.COM is generic because customers
would understand the mark to “primarily [] refer to an
online reservation service for travel, tours, and
lodging, which is consistent with the services
proposed in the applications.” Booking.com B.V. v.
Matal, 278 F. Supp. 3d 891, 898 (E.D. Va. 2017)
(internal citations omitted). In the alternative, the
TTAB also found that BOOKING.COM was
descriptive but lacked a showing of acquired
distinctiveness.

On April 15, 2016, Booking.com sued the USPTO
under 15 U.S.C. § 1071(b) in the U.S. District Court
for the Eastern District of Virginia. Both sides moved
for summary judgment, and in 2017, the district court
found that BOOKING.COM was descriptive. The
district court further found that the record evidence,
including a consumer survey “reveal[ing] that 74.8
percent
of
[survey]
respondents
identified
BOOKING.COM as a brand name,” showed that the
mark had acquired distinctiveness for the relevant
services. Id. at 915. The district court then ordered the
USPTO to register BOOKING.COM for two of the four
applications and remanded for further administrative
proceedings on the other two.
The USPTO appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the Fourth Circuit, challenging whether
BOOKING.COM can be protected as a mark. The
Fourth Circuit applied the fact-specific “primary
significance” test and affirmed the district court’s
holding, finding that “when ‘.com’ is combined with an
SLD, even a generic SLD, the resulting composite may
be non-generic where evidence demonstrates that the
mark’s primary significance to the public as a whole is
the source, not the product.” Booking.com B.V., 915
F.3d at 186.
Petitioners appeal.
ISSUES PRESENTED
Under the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1051 et seq.,
generic terms may not be registered as trademarks.
This case questions whether the addition by an online
business of a generic top-level domain (“.com”) to an
5
otherwise generic term can create a protectable
trademark.
IPLAC respectfully submits that the answer to this
question depends on the proper test for determining
whether a proposed trademark or service mark,
including a domain name comprising a TLD (e.g.,
“.com” or hundreds of other possible choices) and a
generic SLD, when taken as a whole, is generic and
can never serve as a source identifier for particular
goods or services.
SUMMARY OF ARGUMENT
The Court should affirm the Fourth Circuit’s
decision and find that the test for determining
whether a proposed trademark or service mark,
including a domain name, is generic and can never be
protected as a source identifier for particular goods or
services is the fact-specific “primary significance” test
set forth in 15 U.S.C. § 1064(3), which can involve
source-identifying evidence such as consumer
surveys.
The USPTO’s concerns regarding monopoly power
are misplaced. First, a domain name such as
BOOKING.COM does not provide monopoly power,
but rather is simply a unique online address for a user
to locate information (e.g., regarding a particular
company’s goods or services) on the Internet. Second,
courts have addressed monopoly concerns regarding
descriptive marks for decades by granting them a
narrower scope of protection than stronger marks,
such as fanciful, arbitrary or suggestive marks.
6
ARGUMENT
I.
WHETHER A TERM IS GENERIC
SHOULD BE DETERMINED BY THE
FACT-SPECIFIC “PRIMARY
SIGNIFICANCE” TEST.
The Court should affirm the Fourth Circuit’s
decision and hold that the test for whether a
trademark or service mark, including a domain name,
is generic is the fact-specific “primary-significance”
test set forth in 15 U.S.C. § 1064(3). It should reject a
rule that a domain name comprising a generic term or
terms, when taken as a whole, for particular goods or
services, is per se generic and therefore cannot be
registered as a trademark or service mark.
Both the Fourth and Federal Circuits have
adopted the “primary significance” test to determine
if a mark is generic in registration proceedings.8 See,
e.g., Booking.com B.V., 915 F.3d at 180 n.6; In re
1800Mattress.com IP, LLC, 586 F.3d 1359, 1362-63
(Fed. Cir. 2009); In re Reed Elsevier Props., 482 F.3d
1376, 1378 (Fed. Cir. 2007). Indeed, the Seventh
8
Other circuits have also adopted the fact-specific “primary
significance” test to determine if a mark is generic. 2 J. THOMAS
MCCARTHY, MCCARTHY ON TRADEMARKS AND UNFAIR
COMPETITION § 12:6, at 12-27, n.2 (5th ed. 2019) (collecting
cases). As Respondent’s brief observes, “[c]ourts and the
[US]PTO consistently interpret section 1064(3) as mandating
application of the primary-significance test in the registration
context.” Resp’t Br. at 20, 20 n.4. For the sake of conciseness and
for the convenience of the Court, this brief incorporates by
reference those cites.
7
Circuit has also recognized that “the legal test of
genericness is ‘primary significance.’” Ty Inc. v.
Softbelly’s Inc., 353 F.3d 528, 530-31 (7th Cir. 2003)
(quoting Kellogg Co. v. National Biscuit Co., 305 U.S.
111, 118-19 (1938)). This test is flexible and requires
evidence showing that “the primary significance of the
term in the minds of the consuming public is not the
product but the producer.” Kellogg, 305 U.S. at 118.
The USPTO contends that, under Goodyear’s India
Rubber Glove Mfg. v. Goodyear Rubber Co., 128 U.S.
598 (1888), a generic SLD plus a TLD necessarily
results in a generic composite as a matter of law. But
as the Fourth Circuit found, “[n]o circuit has adopted
the bright line rule for which the USPTO advocates.”
Booking.com B.V., 915 F.3d at 184. Other amici also
have highlighted that the USPTO’s own Trademark
Manual of Examining Procedure (“TMEP”) states that
“there is no per se rule that the addition of a nonsource-identifying [generic TLD] to an otherwise
generic term can never under any circumstances
operate to create a registrable mark.” TMEP § 1215.05
(Oct. 2018).
There is no reason to adopt a bright line rule for
domain names. As the Federal Circuit has recognized,
in rare instances, “the addition of a TLD indicator to
a descriptive term operate[s] to create a distinctive
mark” that may be eligible for trademark protection.
In re Steelbuilding.com, 415 F.3d 1293, 1297 (Fed.
Cir. 2005). Adopting a bright line rule would condemn
those marks to genericness as a matter of law and
deprive them forever of any trademark or service
mark protection regardless of any evidence concerning
their source-identifying significance.
8
In addition, “[c]ertain terms may connote more
than the sum of their parts,” and courts should “take
care to decide the genericness of these terms by
looking to the whole.” Liquid Controls Corp. v. Liquid
Control Corp., 802 F.2d 934, 938 (7th Cir. 1986). That
applies equally to domain names. “Because the
evaluation of a mark proposed for registration
requires consideration of the mark as a whole, the
distinctiveness derived from a connection to the
Internet, as indicated by the TLD indicator, is a part
of
the
calculus
for
registration.”
In re
Steelbuilding.com, 415 F.3d at 1297. A flexible test
best permits those considerations and should be
adopted by this Court.
The USPTO also challenges the relevance of
Booking.com’s consumer survey evidence, arguing
that the survey conflates the distinction between
generic and descriptive marks. But genericness is a
question of fact. See, e.g., Booking.com B.V., 915 F.3d
at 181; Advertise.com, Inc. v. AOL Advert., Inc., 616
F.3d 974, 977 (9th Cir. 2010); In re Hotels.com, L.P.,
573 F.3d 1300, 1301 (Fed. Cir. 2009); Door Sys., Inc.
v. Pro-Line Door Sys., Inc., 83 F.3d 169, 171 (7th Cir.
1996).
“More precisely, the question of genericness is one
of linguistic usage, and can be approached by a variety
of routes.” Door Sys., 83 F.3d at 171. One commonly
accepted route is consumer surveys. See, e.g.,
Princeton Vanguard, LLC v. Frito-Lay North
America, Inc., 786 F.3d 960, 965 (Fed. Cir. 2015)
(involving two surveys finding that 41% and 55% of
respondents thought that PRETZEL CRISPS was a
brand name); Ty Inc., 353 F.3d at 530-31 (involving a
9
survey finding that 60% of respondents thought that
“Beanies” was a brand name); see also MCCARTHY,
supra, § 12:14, at 12-58 (“Consumer surveys have
become almost de rigueur in litigation over
genericness.”).
Fourth Circuit precedent provides that “the
district court, as the trier of fact, is accorded great
deference” on factual findings. Booking.com B.V., 915
F.3d at 181 (citing Swatch AG v. Beehive Wholesale,
LLC, 739 F.3d 150, 155 (4th Cir. 2014)). The district
court’s factual finding that BOOKING.COM is
descriptive based on the record evidence should thus
be accorded great deference. Although “there is no
need for a survey if other evidence overwhelmingly
proves that the disputed designation is a generic
name,” several judges are “used to survey evidence
and often expect to receive evidentiary assistance by
surveys in resolving generic disputes.” MCCARTHY,
supra, § 12:14, at 12-58 to 12-59.
Against this backdrop, there is no reason to fault
the district court’s consideration of Booking.com’s
survey “reveal[ing] that 74.8 percent of [survey]
respondents identified BOOKING.COM as a brand
name.” Booking.com B.V., 278 F. Supp. 3d at 915.
II.
THE USPTO’S CONCERNS REGARDING
MONOPOLY POWER ARE MISPLACED.
The USPTO also raises concerns that registration
of BOOKING.COM as a protectable mark will give
Booking.com an “effective monopoly on language, to
the detriment of competition and consumers.” Pets.
Br. at 15. Where trademark or service mark protection
10
has been sought for a generic term, the concern is that
“a competitor could not describe his goods [or services]
as what they are.” Id. at 34 (quoting CES Publ’g Corp.
v. St. Regis Publ’ns, Inc., 531 F.2d 11, 13 (2d Cir.
1975)). But that concern has no application here.
“When the line between generic and descriptive
terms is indistinct . . . it is helpful to ask whether one
firm’s exclusive use of the phrase will prevent a rival
from naming itself and describing its product.” Te-Ta-
Ma Truth Found.—Family of URI, Inc. v. World
Church of the Creator, 297 F.3d 662, 666-67 (7th Cir.
2002). Here, the services Booking.com offers include,
inter alia, providing hotel, resort and temporary
accommodation reservation services and information.
Competitors offering the same services might describe
themselves as offering bookings, or even more likely
as hotel reservation services, but they would not
describe themselves as a “booking.com.” The
combination of these two terms (“booking” and “.com”)
does not per se yield a generic composite.
The district court therefore rightly characterized
the USPTO’s “suggest[ion] that [Booking.com’s]
competitors need to be able to describe themselves as
‘booking.coms’” to compete effectively as illogical.
Booking.com B.V., 278 F. Supp. 3d at 912.
“[C]ompetitors, such as Expedia and Travelocity, have
no incentive to describe themselves as ‘booking.coms’
because this risks diverting customers to the website
of their competitor.” Id. at 913.
Nor does the uniqueness of online addresses create
a concern over monopolization of language. Indeed, in
the online environment, Congress has adopted the
11
Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, 15
U.S.C. § 1125(d), to address concerns that customers
seeking information online about a brand they
recognize will be taken to the wrong website.
For example, “when a trademarked name is used
as a company’s address in cyberspace, customers
know where to go online to conduct business with that
company,”
benefitting
both
consumers
and
merchants. 106 CONG. REC. S10,513, S10,516-17
(daily ed. Aug. 5, 1999) (statement of Sen. Leahy).
Because “consumers have come to rely heavily on
familiar brand names when engaging in online
commerce,” if a competitor “operat[es] a web site
under another brand owner’s trademark . . .
consumers bear a significant risk of being deceived
and defrauded, or at a minimum, confused,” which
may result in “the erosion of consumer confidence in
brand name identifiers and in electronic commerce
generally.” S. REP. NO. 106-140, at 5 (1999).
Nothing in the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer
Protection Act suggests that Congress intended to
withhold its remedies from a domain name that serves
as a source identifier and has become recognized as a
brand, even if the domain name comprises a generic
SLD and a TLD.
The district court properly recognized these policy
considerations: “granting trademarks to producers
who primarily offer goods and services online and
brand themselves based on their domain name favors
the interest of consumers by limiting the prospect of
deception and confusion” and “protects the good will
generated by producers, often at great effort and
12
expense,
and
thereby
incentivizes
brand
development.” Booking.com B.V., 278 F. Supp. 3d at
913.
But this does not mean that a domain name that is
descriptive necessarily would receive the same scope
of protection as a fanciful, arbitrary or suggestive
mark. “Not all marks are equal.” MCCARTHY, supra, §
11:73, at 11-239. “Some trademarks are very ‘strong,’
in the sense they are widely known and recognized.”9
Id. Other “relatively weak marks are given a
relatively narrow range of protection both as to
products and format variations.” Id. at 11-242.
Courts have addressed monopoly concerns
regarding descriptive marks for decades by granting
them a narrower scope of protection than fanciful,
arbitrary or suggestive. See, e.g., Juice Generation,
Inc. v. GS Enters. LLC, 794 F.3d 1334, 1339 (Fed. Cir.
2015) (“Marks that are descriptive . . . are entitled to
a narrower scope of protection, i.e., are less likely to
generate confusion over source identification, than
their more fanciful counterparts.”); Henri’s Food
Prods. Co. v. Tasty Snacks, Inc., 817 F.2d 1303, 1305
(7th Cir. 1987) (“Trademarks run the gamut from the
fanciful or arbitrary (which are fully protected), to the
suggestive, to the ‘merely descriptive’ (which require
for protection a showing of secondary meaning).”); In
re Hunke & Jochheim, 185 U.S.P.Q. 188, 189
(T.T.A.B. 1975) (“[I]t is well established that the scope
9
For example, these marks include “APPLE for computers
and mobile phones, GOOGLE for a search engine, COCA-COLA
for beverages and TOYOTA for vehicles.” Id.
13
of protection afforded a merely descriptive . . . term is
less than that accorded an arbitrary or coined mark.”).
As recognized during the early years of the
Lanham Act, “the merchant who chooses as a mark a
term that is descriptive and has not achieved a strong
presence in the marketplace cannot be surprised that
the mark has only a limited scope of protection.”
MCCARTHY, supra, § 11:76, at 11-253. The same
principle applies here. Accordingly, even if
BOOKING.COM is found descriptive and protectable,
that does not mean that Booking.com would
necessarily receive the same scope of protection as a
fanciful, arbitrary or suggestive mark, let alone a
monopoly.
For these reasons,
concerns are misplaced.
the
USPTO’s
monopoly
CONCLUSION
Because the fact-specific “primary significance”
test provides both the TTAB and courts with
flexibility for all situations and the USPTO’s
monopoly concerns are unfounded, the Court should
affirm the Fourth Circuit’s decision and hold that the
test for whether a proposed trademark or service
mark, including a domain name, is generic is the
“primary-significance” test as set forth in 15 U.S.C. §
1064(3).
