Procedure before EUIPO: Opposition proceedings
Contested decision: Decision of the Fifth Board of Appeal of EUIPO of 25 July 2016 in Case R 2332/2015-5
The applicant claims that the Court should:
—annul the contested decision inasmuch as it ‘[annulled] the contested decision and [rejected] the opposition insofar as it concerns registration of the mark at issue for the following goods: ‘school bags; briefcases; school satchels’ in Class 18 and ‘[rejected] the remainder of the appeal’ and authorise registration of the mark applied for in respect of all the goods;
—order EUIPO to pay the costs.
—Lack of likelihood of confusion between the marks at issue;
—The Board of Appeal based its finding of a likelihood of confusion on the alleged intellectual resemblances, yet they do not immediately strike the consumer.
