Key HSR Filing Threshold Will Increase To $63.1 Million As Of Feb. 28
Client Alert | 1 min read | 01.30.08
The Federal Trade Commission recently revised the jurisdictional and filing fee thresholds of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”). The dollar thresholds of the HSR Act and Rules are indexed on an annual basis, based on changes in the U.S. gross national product. As a result of the recent changes, the size-of-transaction threshold will increase from $59.8 million to $63.1 million. In addition, the size-of-party thresholds, the filing fee thresholds and the thresholds applicable to certain exemptions to the HSR Act will also increase. These revisions will become effective on February 28, 2008.

Are All Baby Products Related? TTAB Says “No”
The United States Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB or Board) recently issued a refreshed opinion in the trademark dispute Naterra International, Inc. v. Samah Bensalem, where Naterra International, Inc. petitioned the TTAB to cancel Samah Bensalem’s registration for the mark BABIES' MAGIC TEA based on its own BABY MAGIC mark. On remand from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the TTAB reconsidered an expert’s opinion about relatedness of goods based on the concept of “umbrella branding” and found that the goods are unrelated and therefore again denied the petition for cancellation.
