Points Of Interest

Summary

[*The opponents cited other objections to the registration including 3(1), 3(6), 103 and other parts of Section 5, but the Hearing Officer found insufficient evidence on these, or, in the case of Section 103, that the objection was misconceived]. Under Section 5(2) the Hearing Officer found that the marks were not sufficiently similar as to give rise to a likelihood of confusion. This effectively decided the matter under Section 5(4)(a) also.
