C’est Toi Jeans USA and Country of Origin

Imports to the United States must be marked with the country of origin. US Customs found that the label "C’est Toi Jeans USA" violated the country of origin marking regulation since the jeans were not made in the US.  However, the Federal Circuit reversed, indicating that it is acceptable to make a product with a trademark that includes USA or America even if the product is not made in the USA.
