`ANSWER
`
`
`
`Respondent Karen Dreyfuss resides at 3980 Curtis Circle, Boca Rotan, Florida, 33434
`
`(“Respondent”) and is the owner of U.S. Registration No. 5,181,849 for the mark PURE
`
`WONDER (the “Registered Mark”). Owner has received a Notice to respond to the PETITION
`
`FOR CANCELLATION filed on June 5, 2020 (the “Petition”) by Petitioner Bostwick Brands,
`
`LLC (“Petitioner”). In response to the Petition, Respondent responds as follows:
`
`1. Respondent filed an application for the Registered Mark on June 23, 2013. At that
`
`time, owner was developing bottled water that harnessed new technology that generates safe
`
`drinking water from air.
`
`2. Petitioner alleges that Respondent has abandoned the Registered Mark pursuant to
`
`Section 14(3) of the Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1064(3). Respondent denies this allegation.
`
`3. Petitioner alleges that Respondent is not currently using the Registered Mark in
`
`connection with “bottled drinking water; bottled water.” Respondent denies this allegation.
`
`4. Petitioner alleges that Respondent has discontinued use of the Registered Mark in
`
`connection with the goods identified in Respondent’s Registration, and has no plans to resume
`
`use. Respondent denies this allegation.
`
`
`
`5. Petitioner alleges that Respondent has not use the Registered Mark for the at least the
`
`last three (3) consecutive years. Respondent denies this allegation.
`
`6. Respondent contacted suppliers and retailers and Respondent had water bottles using
`
`the Registered Mark at Apura Juicery & Coffeehouse, located at 22191 Powerline Road Suite
`
`20B, Boca Raton, Florida, 33433, in February of 2017. In September of 2017, Apura Juicery &
`
`Coffehouse closed.
`
`7. In October of 2017, bottles having the Registered Mark were at the Dosha Café,
`
`located at 139 NE 1st Avenue, Hallandale Beach, Florida, 33009. Bottles using the registered
`
`mark were available at Dosha Café until March of 2020 when the restaurant closed due to the
`
`COVID 19 virus pandemic. See Exhibit A for specimens showing use of the Registered Mark at
`
`Dosha Café.
`
`8. A new restaurant Vegan Junkie opened in July of 2020 at the Dosha Café location and
`
`has agreed to have water bottles using the Registered Mark. Newly designed one-gallon bottles
`
`were ordered on July 10, 2020 and will be delivered to Vegan Junkie as soon as the bottles are
`
`received from the Respondent’s supplier. See Exhibit B for a mockup of the newly designed
`
`one-gallon bottle that is currently under production.
`
`9. Respondent is currently negotiating with ENV Technologies and Mission Possible
`
`Foundation, to produce PURE WONDER branded bottled water.
`
`10. As Respondent has obtained the Registered Mark, used the Registered Mark in the
`
`last three last years, and has plans to increase the use of the Registered Mark, Respondent has not
`
`abandoned the Registered Mark and believes that U.S. Registration No. 5,181,849 remains valid
`
`and requests early dismissal of the Petition for Cancellation.
`
`
`
`Respondent reserves the right to amend this Answer in the event discovery of other
`
`information as appropriate.
`
`WHEREFORE, Respondent prays that U.S. Registration No. 5,181,849 remain valid and
`
`the Petition for Cancellation be dismissed.
`
`
`
`Respectfully submitted,
