Los Angeles artist Erik Brunetti, the founder of the streetwear clothing company "FUCT," leaves the Supreme Court after his trademark case was argued in Washington. Brunetti, who says the brand name is an acronym for "Friends U Can't Trust," is seeking help from the high court after he was denied a trademark by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office because of a portion of federal law that says officials should not register trademarks that are "scandalous" or "immoral."

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office is seen in Alexandria, Va., Friday, Feb. 25, 2011. The patent system hasn’t changed much since 1952 when Sony was coming out with its first pocket-sized transistor radio and bar codes and Mr. Potato Head were among the inventions patented. Now, after years of trying, Congress may be about to do something about that. The Senate is about to take up the “Patent Reform Act,” which would significantly overhaul a 1952 law and, supporters say, bring the patent system in line with 21st century technology of biogenetics and artificial intelligence.
