Points Of Interest
Summary
The opposition was based on the opponents’ registrations of the device of a lion, crowned and with a football under his paw. Taking the global view, however, the Hearing Officer did not consider that there was a likelihood of confusion. The Section 5(2)(b) failed accordingly. The Section 5(4)(a) objection failed also, and the Section 3(6) failed for lack of sufficient evidence.
