Points Of Interest

Summary

The opposition was based on the opponents’ mark MAGIC CHEF and device, registered in respect of various items of electrical kitchen apparatus in Classes 7, 9 and 11. The applicant’s specification in Class 21 read “kitchen utensils for pressing and moulding food into rectangular blocks”.

Although all the opponents’ goods were electrical and the applicant’s goods non-electrical the Hearing Officer found a high degree of similarity in them and also in the respective marks. The opposition succeeded accordingly.
