From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

Top Brand and Cozy Comfort compete in the market of oversized hooded sweatshirts. Cozy Comfort owns U.S. De- sign Patent No. D859,788 (the “D788 patent”) and two trademarks for the “ THE COMFY” for goods and services relating to blanket throws. Top Brand sought declaratory relief of noninfringement of the design patent. Cozy Com- fort counterclaimed for infringement of the design patent and trademarks. After trial, the jury found infringement of both the patent and the trademarks .
