`
`4.
`
`The RUGBY Trademarks listed above are valuable assets of Opposer, with extremely
`
`valuable goodwill and a valuable reputation. Opposer has used the RUGBY Trademarks
`
`in commerce continuously since 1992 and has expended considerable time, effort and
`
`resources to develop, advertise, market and sell goods bearing the RUGBY Trademarks.
`
`5.
`
`Opposer’s long-term, prominent usage of its RUGBY Trademarks has generated
`
`goodwill and widespread consumer recognition for these marks as identifying exclusively
`
`Opposer and its products.
`
`6.
`
`Applicant’s RUGBY GIRL Trademark incorporates and plays upon the RUGBY
`
`Trademarks.
`
`7.
`
`The goods and services covered by Opposer’s RUGBY Trademarks listed above are the
`
`same as the goods contained in Applicant’s Application Serial No. 78/256,800 on which
`
`the mark intends to be used.
`
`
`
`COUNT I
`
`LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION
`
`Opposer repeats and realleges each and every allegation set forth in paragraphs 1 through
`
`7 herein.
`
`The RUGBY GIRL Trademark proposed for registration by Applicant, incorporates and
`
`plays upon Opposer’s RUGBY Trademarks.
`
`The RUGBY GIRL Trademark proposed for registration by Applicant is confusingly
`
`similar to Opposer’s RUGBY Trademarks, rendering them similar in sound, sight and
`
`overall connotation.
`
`11.
`
`Applicant’s RUGBY GIRL Trademark is intended to be used on goods in the same
`
`general market, and sold in the same channels of trade as the goods offered by Opposer
`
`under its RUGBY Trademarks.
`
`If Applicant is permitted to register and use its RUGBY GIRL Trademark, as specified in
`
`its application, confusion in trade and in the minds of the public resulting in injury to the
`
`Opposer would likely result. Persons familiar with Opposer’s marks would likely buy
`
`Applicant’s goods as and for products made and sold by Opposer or at least believe
`
`Applicant’s products were sanctioned, authorized, licensed by or related to Opposer.
`
`Furthermore, any defect, objection or fault found with Applicant’s products marketed
`
`under its mark would likely reflect upon and injure the reputation Opposer establishes
`
`with respect to the goods sold under its aforementioned mark.
`
`
`
`13.
`
`If the Applicant were granted the registration herein opposed, it would thereby obtain at
`
`least a prima facie exclusive right to the use of its mark. Such registration would be a
`
`source of damage and injury to the Opposer.
`
`COUNT II
`
`DILUTION
`
`14.
`
`15.
`
`Opposer repeats and realleges each and every allegation set forth in paragraphs 1 through
`
`13 herein.
`
`Opposer will be damaged by the use and registration by Applicant of the RUGBY GIRL
`
`Trademark in that the mark is substantially similar to Opposer’s RUGBY Trademarks
`
`and common law rights and is used in connection with goods and services related to the
`
`goods and services offered to the public.
`
`16.
`
`Through Opposer’s extensive advertising and promotion, Opposer’s RUGBY
`
`Trademarks have become distinctive and famous. App1icant’s RUGBY GIRL Trademark
`
`is likely to tarnish the positive associations of Opposer’s famous RUGBY Trademarks.
`
`Thus, in addition, if Applicant were granted the registration herein opposed, it would
`
`cause dilution of the distinctive quality of Opposer’s well-known RUGBY Trademarks.
`
`17.
`
`If the Applicant were granted the registration herein opposed, it would thereby obtain at
`
`least a prima facie exclusive right to the use of its mark. Such registration would be a
`
`source of damage and injury to the Opposer.
`
`
`
`RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`18. WHEREFORE, the Opposer prays that, the Application Serial No. 78/256800 be
`
`rejected, and that the registration of the mark therein, sought for the goods specified in
`
`International Classes 25, be denied and refused in accordance with 15 U.S.C. § l052(d),
`
`and that this opposition is sustained.
