Points Of Interest
Summary
The opposition was based on the opponent's marks RODCRAFT. The Hearing Officer found the respective marks to be visually, orally and conceptually similar. After a comparison of the goods and on a global appreciation the Hearing Officer found a likelihood of confusion. The opposition under Section 5(2)(b) succeeded accordingly. Since that finding effectively decided the matter, the Hearing Officer only briefly considered the matter under Section 5(4)(a), but in this, too, he found the opponent successful.
