Sentencing – Supervised Release
In this appeal, David Tjader challenges several conditions of his supervised release on grounds he did not raise in the district court.
Exclusion of Evidence
Bodum USA, Inc. (“Bodum”) produces and sells what design magazines and art museums have recognized as an iconically designed houseware product—the Chambord French press coffeemaker.
Trademark Infringement – Expert Testimony
The word “capsule” can describe many things—a pharmaceutical pill, a space pod, or a short synopsis, for example. What about a cellphone case?

Medicare – Notice And Comment Obligations
