That authority has long precluded First Amendment challenges to 15 U.S.C. §1152(a) [§2(a) of the Lanham Act], the section barring registration of disparaging marks that also resulted in the 2014 cancellation of Pro-Football Inc.'s registrations of its "Redskins" marks. Judge Moore's 24-page "Additional Views" were appended to and were at odds with the 11-page opinion she authored in which the Federal Circuit initially affirmed a §2(a) refusal to register "The Slants."
