Result
Section 5(2)(b): Opposition successful. Section 5(4)(a): No formal finding.
Points Of Interest
Summary
The opposition was based on the opponents’ mark CONCHANGO, registered in Classes 9, 35, 38, 41 & 42.
Overall, the Hearing Officer found the mark to be similar “to a reasonable degree”.
The services also were “reasonably similar”.
Both marks were highly distinctive.
These findings led the Hearing Officer to the conclusion that there was a likelihood of confusion and the opposition under Section 5(2)(b) succeeded accordingly.
The opponents could be in no better a position in relation to Section 5(4)(a) and the Hearing Officer therefore made no formal finding under that head.
