Points Of Interest
Summary
Opponents opposition based on their registrations in Class 3 of the marks NATREL and NATREL PLUS. In relation to Class 3 the Hearing Officer noted that the respective specifications covered identical goods and went on to compare the respective marks. In applying the usual tests he concluded that the respective marks were phonetically similar and, bearing imperfect recollection in mind, he decided that there was a likelihood of the public being confused. Opposition successful in respect of Class 3 application. Application allowed to proceed in Class 5 as not opposed.
