Summary

The USPTO Trademark Trial and Appeal Board issued a final decision dismissing Opposition No. 91302797 filed by Coast Hotels Limited against The Refresh Collection LLC's trademark application for 'FC FRESH COAST MOTEL'. The opposition was dismissed without prejudice, meaning the plaintiff may potentially refile under different circumstances.

What changed

The TTAB issued a final decision in Opposition No. 91302797, dismissing Coast Hotels Limited's opposition to the registration of the mark 'FC FRESH COAST MOTEL' by The Refresh Collection LLC. The opposition, which was filed on October 30, 2025, was dismissed without prejudice. Coast Hotels will retain its ability to pursue future opposition proceedings if it can identify new grounds or additional evidence supporting its case.

For parties involved in trademark opposition proceedings, this decision underscores that opposition filings must present sufficient grounds and evidence to overcome a respondent's motion to dismiss or to survive at trial. Trademark applicants facing opposition should monitor such proceedings and respond appropriately to protect their registration interests. The dismissal without prejudice leaves the underlying trademark application eligible for further examination by the USPTO.
