Justice Scalia, concurring. I write separately to note my complete agreement with Justice Thomas's explanation as to how the language of § 43(a) and its common-law derivation are broad enough to embrace inherently distinctive trade dress. Nevertheless, because I find that analysis to be complementary to (and not inconsistent with) the Court’s opinion, I concur in the latter.

UpLaw has not yet analyzed Two Pesos, Inc. v. Taco Cabana, Inc.. The absence of a flag is not a finding that it is good law.
