Points Of Interest
Summary
The opposition was based on the opponents’ mark L.O.G.G. No evidence was offered in respect of the Section 3(6) allegation and this was dismissed. The Hearing Officer considered that the similarity between the marks was not such as to give rise to a likelihood of confusion. The Section 5(2)(b) ground failed accordingly, taking the Section 5(3) ground down with it. Under Section 5(4)(a) the Hearing Officer concluded that the opponents had failed to show any misrepresentation or likelihood of damage and since the marks were dissimilar, that ground failed also.
