`
`NOTICE OF OPPOSITION
`
`Opposers Mascotte Holdings, Inc. and Kanye West (collectively, “Opposers”) believe
`
`that they will be damaged by the registration of the YEEZEE with design mark shown in
`
`Application Serial No. 87/557,963 (the “Application”) and hereby oppose the same. The
`
`grounds for Opposition are as follows:
`
`1.
`
`Opposer Mascotte Holdings, Inc. is a corporation organized under the laws of the
`
`State of California, with its principal place of business at c/o Pryor Cashman LLP, 7 Times
`
`Square, New York, NY 10036.
`
`2.
`
`Opposer Kanye West (“West”) is an individual and United States citizen. West is
`
`an internationally renowned Grammy® Award-winning musical artist, performer, media
`
`company owner, songwriter, producer, film director and fashion designer.
`
`3.
`
`West first rose to fame as a producer for Roc-A-Fella Records, where he achieved
`
`recognition in 2001 for his work on Jay Z’s album The Blueprint, as well as on hit singles for
`
`musical artists including Alicia Keys, Ludacris and Janet Jackson. To date, West has released
`
`
`
`seven full-length studio albums, has sold over 32 million albums and over 100 million digital
`
`songs, making him one of the best-selling artists of all-time.
`
`4.
`
`West has adorned the cover of hundreds of magazines, including, but not limited
`
`to, Vogue, GQ, Time and Rolling Stone magazines. Time has ranked West on its list of the 100
`
`Most Influential People in 2015, and Forbes identified him on its annual Celebrity 100 list in
`
`2015. MTV also honored West with the 2015 Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award,
`
`honoring “his career-spanning groundbreaking videos, legendary VMA performances, and
`
`continued impact on music, art, fashion, and culture.”
`
`5.
`
`West’s recognition expands well beyond the world of music -- West sets trends
`
`for everything he touches. He has launched his own clothing lines, designed products with major
`
`athletic apparel companies, including Adidas, and even designed high-end shoe lines for Louis
`
`Vuitton and Giuseppe Zanotti.
`
`6.
`
`Labeled as one of the most acclaimed rappers of the 21st century, West’s massive
`
`following knows West as “YEEZY,” a pseudonym that West adopted in 2009. Alternative
`
`spellings of YEEZY are YZY and YEEZI. The YEEZY and YZY marks function as source
`
`identifying trademarks for goods and services emanating from Opposers.
`
`7.
`
`Opposers offer for sale and sell various merchandise under the YEEZY and YZY
`
`marks including clothing, sneakers and entertainment related products.
`
`8.
`
`Opposers unveiled new lines of clothing and sneakers bearing the YEEZY and
`
`YZY marks at three separate shows during New York Fashion Week. Titans in both the music
`
`and fashion industries attended these shows, which were broadcast live around the world,
`
`including Opposers’ “YEEZY Season 3” show in 2016.
`
`2831309 v1
`10859.00017
`
`2
`
`
`
`9.
`
`Opposers have been continuously using the YEEZY and YZY marks in
`
`connection with clothing and footwear since at least as early as February 2015 in the United
`
`States.
`
`10.
`
`In 2015, West was awarded the “Shoe of the Year” Award by Footwear News for
`
`the YEEZY and YZY shoe collection.
`
`11.
`
`Opposers have sold a significant number of units of the YEEZY and YZY shoes
`
`in the United States during their short introduction into the marketplace. The shoes sell-out in a
`
`matter of minutes and are often then resold on online marketplaces for hundreds and often
`
`thousands of dollars.
`
`12.
`
`The YEEZY and YZY marks serve to identify Opposers as the sole source of
`
`high-quality goods bearing the mark, and the marks have become internationally famous and a
`
`substantial commercial asset.
`
`13. West, through his company Mascotte Holdings, Inc., is the owner of a United
`
`States trademark registration for the YEEZY mark, Reg. No. 5,125,895, for use in connection
`
`with Class 25 “clothing, namely, footwear, shoes, sneakers.”
`
`14. West, through his company Mascotte Holdings, Inc., is the owner of a United
`
`States trademark registration for the YZY mark, Reg. No. 5,227,726, for use in connection with
`
`Class 25 “footwear.”
`
`15. West, through his company Mascotte Holdings, Inc., is the owner of a United
`
`States trademark application for the YEEZI mark, Serial No. 86/636,729, for use in connection
`
`with Class 9 “musical sound recordings; audio-visual recordings, namely, compact discs,
`
`phonograph records, DVDs, laser discs and MP3s, all featuring music; downloadable musical

`
`86/636,729, are attached hereto as Exhibit A. Opposer Mascotte Holdings, Inc. hereby gives
`
`notice in accordance with Trademark Rules of Practice 2.122(d)(2) that it will rely upon these
`
`registrations and application as evidence in this proceeding, and status copies showing present
`

`
`
`
`17.
`
`Opposers’ YEEZY, YZY and YEEZI marks are inherently distinctive and
`
`arbitrary.
`
`18.
`
`The registrations for the YEEZY and YZY marks and application for the YEEZI
`
`mark are not limited by channels of trade or by classes of purchasers.
`
`19.
`
`Opposers have developed extensive common law rights in the YEEZY and YZY
`
`marks as source identifiers of high-quality clothing, footwear and entertainment related products.
`
`Goods bearing these marks have been sold throughout the United States since at least as early as
`
`February 2015 to the general consuming public through the normal channels of trade for these
`
`types of goods.
`
`20.
`
`By virtue of widespread sales and advertising and promotion of the goods offered
`
`under the YEEZY and YZY marks, Opposers’ marks have become well-known by the general
`
`public and in the relevant industries, is recognized and relied upon as identifying Opposers’
`
`goods and as distinguishing them from the goods of others, and have come to represent and
`
`symbolize extremely valuable goodwill belonging exclusively to Opposers. Opposers have spent
`
`substantial time, effort and money promoting their goods under the YEEZY and YZY marks.
`
`Through these efforts, the YEEZY and YZY marks have become famous within the meaning of
`
`Section 43(c) of the Lanham Act, as amended 15 U.S.C. § 1125(c).
`
`21.
`
`Upon information and belief, Haite Photoelectric Co., Ltd. (“Applicant”) is a
`
`limited company organized in China with an address of Room A108, No. 47, YongAn Road, SCI.
`
`& TECH. Park, Changping District, Beijing, China 102200.
`
`22.
`
`Notwithstanding Opposers’ prior rights in the YEEZY, YZY and YEEZI marks,
`
`Applicant filed U.S. Trademark Application Serial No. 87/557,963 for the YEEZEE with design
`
`mark for Class 9 “cabinets for loudspeakers; camcorders; electric door bells; electric and
`
`2831309 v1
`10859.00017
`
`5
`
`
`
`electronic video surveillance installations; electrical and electronic burglar alarms; microphones;
`
`portable media players; protection masks; rechargeable batteries; telematics apparatus, namely,
`
`wireless internet devices which provide telematic services and have a cellular phone function.”
`
`The Application was filed on August 7, 2017, based on Section 1(b) of the Trademark Act, and
`
`was published in the Official Gazette on January 9, 2018.
`
`23.
`
`Opposers have continuously and exclusively used the YEEZY and YZY marks in
`
`commerce prior to the filing date of the Application for the YEEZEE with design mark.
`
`Opposers also filed its YEEZI application prior to Applicant’s filing date of the Application for
`
`the YEEZEE with design mark. As such, Opposers have priority.
`
`24.
`
`Applicant’s goods are identical to the goods identified in Opposer Mascotte
`
`Holdings, Inc.’s prior-filed application for the YEEZI mark and are sufficiently related to the
`
`services provided by West and the goods offered in connection with the YEEZY and YZY marks
`
`such that a reasonable consumer would be confused as to source or sponsorship.
`
`25.
`
`The Application for the YEEZEE with design mark is not limited by channels of
`
`trade or by classes of purchasers.
`
`26.
`
`The YEEZEE with design mark is similar to Opposers’ YEEZY and YEEZI
`
`marks and an alternative spelling of Opposers’ YZY mark.
`
`27.
`
`The YEEZEE with design mark usurps, in whole or in part, Opposers’ YEEZY,
`
`YZY and YEEZI marks thereby creating a mark that is similar in sight, sound and overall
`
`commercial impression to Opposers’ YEEZY, YZY and YEEZI marks.
`
`28.
`
`Applicant’s use and registration of the YEEZEE with design mark is likely to
`
`cause consumers to mistakenly believe that goods sold bearing the mark emanate from Opposers
`
`2831309 v1
`10859.00017
`
`6
`
`
`
`or that Applicant is in some way associated with or connection to Opposers, when, in fact, no
`
`such relationship exists.
`
`29.
`
`Applicant’s use and registration of the YEEZEE with design mark is likely to
`
`false suggest a connection with Opposers and Opposers’ YEEZY, YZY and YEEZI marks.
`
`30.
`
`Registration should be refused pursuant to Section 2(d) of the Trademark Act of
`
`1946, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 1052(d), on the grounds that the YEEZEE with design mark so
`
`resembles Opposers’ YEEZY, YZY and YEEZI marks as to cause confusion, mistake and/or
`
`deception, all to the damage of Opposers.
`
`31.
`
`Opposers’ YEEZY and YZY marks became famous before Applicant’s
`
`Application date.
`
`32.
`
`The YEEZEE with design mark so closely resembles Opposers’ YEEZY and
`
`YZY marks as to dilute or to likely cause dilution by blurring of the distinctive quality of
`
`Opposers’ YEEZY and YZY marks. As such, the YEEZEE with design mark is not entitled to
`
`registration pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1125(c).
`
`33.
`
`If Applicant is granted registration for the YEEZEE with design mark, it would
`
`obtain, thereby, at least a prima facie exclusive right to use the YEEZEE with design mark. Such
`
`registration would be a source of damage and injury to Opposers.
`
`WHEREFORE, Opposers, by their undersigned attorneys, requests that the Trademark
`
`Trial and Appeal Board sustain their opposition to Application Serial No. 87/557,963 and grant
`
`any and all further relief to Opposers that the Board finds necessary and just in the circumstances.
`
`Opposers appoint as their attorneys in these proceedings Brad D. Rose, Dyan Finguerra-
`
`DuCharme and Ryan S. Klarberg of the firm Pryor Cashman LLP, 7 Times Square, New York,
`
`New York 10036, to whom all correspondence in this proceeding should be addressed. Please

`
`REQUIREMENTS TO MAINTAIN YOUR FEDERAL TRADEMARK REGISTRATION
`
`WARNING: YOUR REGISTRATION WILL BE CANCELLED IF YOU DO NOT FILE THE
`DOCUMENTS BELOW DURING THE SPECIFIED TIME PERIODS.
`
`Requirements in the First Ten Years*
`What and When to File:
`
`• First Filing Deadline: You must file a Declaration of Use (or Excusable Nonuse) between the 5th and 6th
`years after the registration date. See 15 U.S.C. §§1058, 1141k. If the declaration is accepted, the
`registration will continue in force for the remainder of the ten-year period, calculated from the registration
`date, unless cancelled by an order of the Commissioner for Trademarks or a federal court.
`
`• Second Filing Deadline: You must file a Declaration of Use (or Excusable Nonuse) and an Application
`for Renewal between the 9th and 10th years after the registration date.* See 15 U.S.C. §1059.
`
`Requirements in Successive Ten-Year Periods*
`What and When to File:
`
`• You must file a Declaration of Use (or Excusable Nonuse) and an Application for Renewal
`between every 9th and 10th-year period, calculated from the registration date.*
`
`Grace Period Filings*
`
`The above documents will be accepted as timely if filed within six months after the deadlines listed above with
`the payment of an additional fee.
`
`*ATTENTION MADRID PROTOCOL REGISTRANTS: The holder of an international registration with an
`extension of protection to the United States under the Madrid Protocol must timely file the Declarations of Use
`(or Excusable Nonuse) referenced above directly with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
`The time periods for filing are based on the U.S. registration date (not the international registration date). The

`nationally issued registrations. See 15 U.S.C. §§1058, 1141k. However, owners of international registrations
`do not file renewal applications at the USPTO. Instead, the holder must file a renewal of the underlying

`
`
`REQUIREMENTS TO MAINTAIN YOUR FEDERAL TRADEMARK REGISTRATION
`
`WARNING: YOUR REGISTRATION WILL BE CANCELLED IF YOU DO NOT FILE THE
`DOCUMENTS BELOW DURING THE SPECIFIED TIME PERIODS.
`
`Requirements in the First Ten Years*
`What and When to File:
`
`• First Filing Deadline: You must file a Declaration of Use (or Excusable Nonuse) between the 5th and 6th
`years after the registration date. See 15 U.S.C. §§1058, 1141k. If the declaration is accepted, the
`registration will continue in force for the remainder of the ten-year period, calculated from the registration
`date, unless cancelled by an order of the Commissioner for Trademarks or a federal court.
`
`• Second Filing Deadline: You must file a Declaration of Use (or Excusable Nonuse) and an Application
`for Renewal between the 9th and 10th years after the registration date.* See 15 U.S.C. §1059.
`
`Requirements in Successive Ten-Year Periods*
`What and When to File:
`
`• You must file a Declaration of Use (or Excusable Nonuse) and an Application for Renewal
`between every 9th and 10th-year period, calculated from the registration date.*
`
`Grace Period Filings*
`
`The above documents will be accepted as timely if filed within six months after the deadlines listed above with
`the payment of an additional fee.
`
`*ATTENTION MADRID PROTOCOL REGISTRANTS: The holder of an international registration with an
`extension of protection to the United States under the Madrid Protocol must timely file the Declarations of Use
`(or Excusable Nonuse) referenced above directly with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
`The time periods for filing are based on the U.S. registration date (not the international registration date). The
`deadlines and grace periods for the Declarations of Use (or Excusable Nonuse) are identical to those for
`nationally issued registrations. See 15 U.S.C. §§1058, 1141k. However, owners of international registrations
`do not file renewal applications at the USPTO. Instead, the holder must file a renewal of the underlying
`international registration at the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization, under
`Article 7 of the Madrid Protocol, before the expiration of each ten-year term of protection, calculated from the
`date of the international registration. See 15 U.S.C. §1141j. For more information and renewal forms for the
`international registration, see http://www.wipo.int/madrid/en/.
`
`NOTE: Fees and requirements for maintaining registrations are subject to change. Please check the
`USPTO website for further information. With the exception of renewal applications for registered
`extensions of protection, you can file the registration maintenance documents referenced above online at h
`ttp://www.uspto.gov.
`
`NOTE: A courtesy e-mail reminder of USPTO maintenance filing deadlines will be sent to trademark
`owners/holders who authorize e-mail communication and maintain a current e-mail address with the
`USPTO. To ensure that e-mail is authorized and your address is current, please use the Trademark
`Electronic Application System (TEAS) Correspondence Address and Change of Owner Address Forms
`available at http://www.uspto.gov.
