Points Of Interest

Summary

The opponents claimed they were the true owners of the mark SNORENZ and were registered as proprietors of that make in the USA. Although there had been commercial contact between the parties the Hearing Officer concluded that bad faith could not be inferred from the history of those contacts, and the opponents had provided no stronger proof.
