Summary
The opposition (which was solely in respect of the Class 16 goods) was based on use of the mark ARTBOX (in various formats). Having reviewed the evidence of use filed by the opponents the Hearing Officer “albeit with some hesitation” came to the conclusion that it was not sufficient to establish the necessary goodwill or reputation. The opposition failed accordingly.
