The case over whether the Washington football team’s name is a trademark violation is set to be revived tomorrow in the federal Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. Getting a hearing nearly seven years after it was originally filed, the trademark suit filed by a group of Native American activists seeks pick up on one of the more famous fights over the NFL franchise’s name.

The case, Blackhorse et al v. Football, Inc., picks up the mantle of the case filed in 1992 by Suzan Shown Harjo in which she argued that the team’s name should not receive trademark protection because of its disparaging nature. Although the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ruled in Harjo’s favor in 1999, the decision was appealed and ultimately overturned in 2005.

One of the reasons Harjo’s case was overturned was because the football team registered its name long after she and her fellow plaintiffs became old enough to file a court case. In the new case, the Associated Press reports, the plaintiffs were much younger when it was filed than Harjo, now 67, filed her case:

So this new case was begun in 2006 by a different group of Native Americans, with ages ranging from 18 to 24 at the time it was filed. For various reasons, it’s taken seven years for it to get this far. It’s now been 21 years since Harjo, now 67, filed the original case.

Dan Snyder and other team executives have adamantly resisted changing its name, repeatedly saying that it honors, not insults, Native Americans. But the suit is designed to strip the team of the trademark protection around its nickname so as to deprive it of the revenue it receives from branded merchandise, thus pressuring the organization to adopt a new nickname.
