`
`NOTICE OF OPPOSITION
`
`_____________________________________________________________________
`
` Rocky Mountain Natural Labs, LLC (“Opposer”), as grounds for its opposition against
`
`Geeta Bhat (“Applicant”) alleges:
`
`1. Opposer is the owner of several “Cowgirl” trademarks for use in connection with
`
`bath, beauty, body, personal care and skincare products in International Class
`
`(“IC”) 3, including the following registered trademarks: “Cowgirl” - Reg. No.
`
`2736085, “Cowgirl Skincare” - Reg. No. 2736084, “Cowgirl Extreme Cream” -
`
`Reg. No. 3702929. Opposer also has a registration for “Cowgirl Skincare” for
`
`on-line retail store services featuring body, beauty, bath and skincare products in
`
`IC 35 – Reg. No. 5323005 (collectively the above shall be referred to as
`
`“COWGIRL marks”).
`
`2. Since at least, 2000, Opposer has continuously, extensively and widely
`
`promoted, advertised and/or sold its goods and services under various
`
`COWGIRL marks and to distinguish its goods and services from the same and
`
`similar goods and services of others; and, it continues to do so.
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`3. As a result of Opposer’s extensive sales and marketing, the COWGIRL marks
`
`have established tremendous goodwill belonging to and associated with
`
`Opposer. As such, the COWGIRL marks have become assets of substantial
`
`value to Opposer and its quality goods and services.
`
`4. Notwithstanding Opposer’s well-known and prior common law and statutory
`
`rights in the COWGIRL marks, Applicant filed an intent to use trademark
`
`application for a confusingly similar mark, namely JIUJITSU COWGIRL for use in
`
`connection with goods in IC 3 (“Applicant’s proposed mark”).
`
`5. Applicant’s proposed mark was published in the Official Gazette on April 9, 2019.
`
`6. Opposer received an extension to file its Notice of Opposition to August 7, 2019.
`
`7. Applicant’s proposed mark uses the same word COWGIRL to denote goods in
`
`the same class which are marketed in the same trade channels. As such,
`
`Applicant’s mark is likely to create confusion, mistake and deception as to the
`
`affiliation, connection, association, origin, sponsorship or approval of Applicant’s
`
`goods with those of Opposer, all to Opposer=s irreparable loss and damage.
`
`8. Opposer will continue to be damaged if Applicant’s proposed mark registers.
`
`Wherefore, Opposer requests that this Opposition be sustained and Applicant’s
`
`proposed trademark for JIUJITSU COWGIRL be refused registration.
`
`Date: August 7, 2019
