In a similar case, an Asian-American rock band named The Slants went to Federal Appeals Court to petition a denied trademark. The band tried to trademark their name in 2011, but the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ruled that the name disparages Asians, and, therefore, is a violation. A federal appeals court granted the band's appeal, and now, the Washington Redskins are trying to use that court case to its advantage.
