Section 2(d) Refusal – Likelihood of Confusion

THIS PARTIAL REFUSAL APPLIES ONLY TO THE APPLICANT’S GOODS INVOLVING AIR-CONDITIONING, AIR HANDLERS, AIR PURIFIERS, AND THEIR COMPLEMENTARY GOODS

 

Registration of the applied-for mark is refused because of a likelihood of confusion with the mark in U.S. Registration No. 2756127.  Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); see TMEP §§1207.01 et seq.  See the attached registration.

 

Trademark Act Section 2(d) bars registration of an applied-for mark that is so similar to a registered mark that it is likely consumers would be confused, mistaken, or deceived as to the commercial source of the goods and/or services of the parties.  See 15 U.S.C. §1052(d).  Likelihood of confusion is determined on a case-by-case basis by applying the factors set forth in In re E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., 476 F.2d 1357, 1361, 177 USPQ 563, 567 (C.C.P.A. 1973) (called the “du Pont factors”).  In re i.am.symbolic, llc, 866 F.3d 1315, 1322, 123 USPQ2d 1744, 1747 (Fed. Cir. 2017).  Only those factors that are “relevant and of record” need be considered.  M2 Software, Inc. v. M2 Commc’ns, Inc., 450 F.3d 1378, 1382, 78 USPQ2d 1944, 1947 (Fed. Cir. 2006) (citing Shen Mfg. Co. v. Ritz Hotel Ltd., 393 F.3d 1238, 1241, 73 USPQ2d 1350, 1353 (Fed. Cir. 2004)); see In re Inn at St. John’s, LLC, 126 USPQ2d 1742, 1744 (TTAB 2018). 

 

Although not all du Pont factors may be relevant, there are generally two key considerations in any likelihood of confusion analysis:  (1) the similarities between the compared marks and (2) the relatedness of the compared goods and/or services.  See In re i.am.symbolic, llc, 866 F.3d at 1322, 123 USPQ2d at 1747 (quoting Herbko Int’l, Inc. v. Kappa Books, Inc., 308 F.3d 1156, 1164-65, 64 USPQ2d 1375, 1380 (Fed. Cir. 2002)); Federated Foods, Inc. v. Fort Howard Paper Co.,544 F.2d 1098, 1103, 192 USPQ 24, 29 (C.C.P.A. 1976) (“The fundamental inquiry mandated by [Section] 2(d) goes to the cumulative effect of differences in the essential characteristics of the goods [or services] and differences in the marks.”); TMEP §1207.01.

 

(1)   Similarity of the Marks

Applicant has applied for the mark “ENERJO”. Registrant has registered the mark “ENERJOY”.

 

Marks are compared in their entireties for similarities in appearance, sound, connotation, and commercial impression.  Stone Lion Capital Partners, LP v. Lion Capital LLP, 746 F.3d 1317, 1321, 110 USPQ2d 1157, 1160 (Fed. Cir. 2014) (quoting Palm Bay Imps., Inc. v. Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Maison Fondee En 1772, 396 F.3d 1369, 1371, 73 USPQ2d 1689, 1691 (Fed. Cir. 2005)); TMEP §1207.01(b)-(b)(v).  “Similarity in any one of these elements may be sufficient to find the marks confusingly similar.”  In re Inn at St. John’s, LLC, 126 USPQ2d 1742, 1746 (TTAB 2018) (citing In re Davia, 110 USPQ2d 1810, 1812 (TTAB 2014)); TMEP §1207.01(b).

 

Consumers are generally more inclined to focus on the first word, prefix, or syllable in any trademark or service mark.  See Palm Bay Imps., Inc. v. Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Maison Fondee En 1772, 396 F.3d 1369, 1372, 73 USPQ2d 1689, 1692 (Fed. Cir. 2005) (finding similarity between VEUVE ROYALE and two VEUVE CLICQUOT marks in part because “VEUVE . . . remains a ‘prominent feature’ as the first word in the mark and the first word to appear on the label”); Century 21 Real Estate Corp. v. Century Life of Am., 970 F.2d 874, 876, 23 USPQ2d 1698, 1700 (Fed Cir. 1992) (finding similarity between CENTURY 21 and CENTURY LIFE OF AMERICA in part because “consumers must first notice th[e] identical lead word”); see also In re Detroit Athletic Co., 903 F.3d 1297, 1303, 128 USPQ2d 1047, 1049 (Fed. Cir. 2018) (finding “the identity of the marks’ two initial words is particularly significant because consumers typically notice those words first”).

 

Additionally, incorporating the entirety of one mark within another does not obviate the similarity between the compared marks, as in the present case, nor does it overcome a likelihood of confusion under Section 2(d).  See Wella Corp. v. Cal. Concept Corp., 558 F.2d 1019, 1022, 194 USPQ 419, 422 (C.C.P.A. 1977) (finding CALIFORNIA CONCEPT and surfer design and CONCEPT confusingly similar); Coca-Cola Bottling Co. v. Jos. E. Seagram & Sons, Inc., 526 F.2d 556, 557, 188 USPQ 105, 106 (C.C.P.A. 1975) (finding BENGAL LANCER and design and BENGAL confusingly similar); In re Integrated Embedded, 120 USPQ2d 1504, 1513 (TTAB 2016) (finding BARR GROUP and BARR confusingly similar); In re Mr. Recipe, LLC, 118 USPQ2d 1084, 1090 (TTAB 2016) (finding JAWS DEVOUR YOUR HUNGER and JAWS confusingly similar); TMEP §1207.01(b)(iii). 

 

In the present case, the marks are identical in part as the registered mark entirely incorporates the applied-for mark. Further, the identical part of the applied-for and registered marks are also the first two syllables of the marks. Therefore, the identical portions are also the prominent features of the mark on which consumers will focus, and therefore this portion of the mark is afforded greater weight in the likelihood of confusion analysis.

 

Thus, the marks are similar.

 

(2)   Relatedness of the Goods

Applicant has applied for several relevant goods related to air-conditioning, air-conditioners, their components, and complementary goods. Registrant has registered its identification of goods for “Thermostats” and “Radiant heating panels, air conditioning air handlers and air conditioning condensers.”

 

The goods and/or services are compared to determine whether they are similar, commercially related, or travel in the same trade channels.  See Coach Servs., Inc. v. Triumph Learning LLC, 668 F.3d 1356, 1369-71, 101 USPQ2d 1713, 1722-23 (Fed. Cir. 2012); Herbko Int’l, Inc. v. Kappa Books, Inc., 308 F.3d 1156, 1165, 64 USPQ2d 1375, 1381 (Fed. Cir. 2002); TMEP §§1207.01, 1207.01(a)(vi).

 

The attached Internet evidence, consisting of screenshots from the webpages of York, Carrier, Lennox, and Rheem, establishes that the same entity commonly manufactures/produces the relevant goods and markets the goods under the same mark. This evidence also shows that the relevant goods are sold or provided through the same trade channels and used by the same classes of consumers in the same fields of use, and are similar or complementary in terms of purpose or function.  Thus, applicant’s and registrant’s goods are considered related for likelihood of confusion purposes.  See, e.g., In re Davey Prods. Pty Ltd., 92 USPQ2d 1198, 1202-04 (TTAB 2009); In re Toshiba Med. Sys. Corp., 91 USPQ2d 1266, 1268-69, 1271-72 (TTAB 2009).

 

(3)   Conclusion

Because the applied-for and registered marks are nearly identical and the registered mark encompasses the applied-for mark, and because the goods are commonly manufactured and produced by the same entities, travel through the same trade channels, and are similar or complementary in terms of purpose and function, registration is refused for a likelihood of confusion between the marks.

 

Although applicant’s mark has been refused registration, applicant may respond to the refusal(s) by submitting evidence and arguments in support of registration.  However, if applicant responds to the refusal(s), applicant must also respond to the requirement(s) set forth below.

 

Classification and Identification of Goods

 

The identification of goods is indefinite and must be clarified because the applicant in several instances does not properly specify the common commercial or generic name for the goods, or field of use in which the goods are intended to be used.  See 37 C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP §1402.01.  Applicant must amend the identification to specify the common commercial or generic name of the goods.  See TMEP §1402.01.  If the goods have no common commercial or generic name, applicant must describe the product, its main purpose, and its intended uses.  See id. Applicant must specify the field of use in which the goods are used or intended to be used, or the specific purpose of the goods.  See TMEP §1402.01. 

 

Specifically, applicant filed a TEAS Plus applicant listing services from the USPTO’ s ID Manual. See U.S. Acceptable Identification of Goods and Services Manual. However, applicant inserted wording in the identification of services that does not clearly specify the nature or subject matter of the services.

 

Applicant is advised to delete or modify the duplicate entry in the identification of goods and/or services in for “Air purifiers”; “Air-conditioning apparatus”; “Baking ovens”; “Electric coffee makers”; “Electric cooking ovens”; “Electric fans”; “Electric toasters”; “Microwave ovens”; “Radiators”; and “Range hoods”.  See generally TMEP §§1402.01, 1402.01(a).  If applicant does not respond to this issue, be advised that the USPTO will remove duplicate entries from the identification prior to registration.

 

If modifying one of the duplicate entries, applicant may amend it to clarify or limit the goods and/or services, but not to broaden or expand the goods and/or services beyond those in the original application or as acceptably amended.  See 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06.  Also, generally, any deleted goods and/or services may not later be reinserted.  TMEP §1402.07(e).

 

Additionally, applicant has classified the following goods and/or services in International Class 11:  “Filtering units for . . . oil, gas.”  However, the proper classification for each item is as follows:

• “Filtering units for oil” are in International Class 7; and
• “Filtering units for gas” are in International Class 7

 

Additionally, applicant has provided the application fee(s) for only 1 international class.  Thus, not all international classes in the application are covered by the application fee(s).  Because of this disparity, applicant must clarify the number of classes for which registration is sought.  See 37 C.F.R. §§2.32(d), 2.86.

 

Applicant may respond by (1) adding one or more international class(es) to the application, and reclassifying the above goods and/or services accordingly; or (2) deleting from the application the goods and/or services for all but the number of international class(es) for which the application fee was submitted.  See 37 C.F.R. §§2.86(a), 6.1; TMEP §§1403.02 et seq.  If applicant adds one or more international classes to the application, applicant must comply with the multiple-class application requirements specified in this Office action.

 

Applicant may adopt the following identification of goods, if accurate (changes are in bold, deletions have been struck through, and applicant is asked to specify/clarify in the {brackets}):

Applicant may amend the identification to clarify or limit the goods and/or services, but not to broaden or expand the goods and/or services beyond those in the original application or as acceptably amended.  See 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06.  Generally, any deleted goods and/or services may not later be reinserted.  See TMEP §1402.07(e).

 

For assistance with identifying and classifying goods and services in trademark applications, please see the USPTO’s online searchable U.S. Acceptable Identification of Goods and Services Manual.  See TMEP §1402.04.

 

Multiple Class Application Advisory

 

The application identifies goods and/or services in more than one international class; therefore, applicant must satisfy all the requirements below for each international class based on Trademark Act Section 1(b):

 

(1)        List the goods and/or services by their international class number in consecutive numerical order, starting with the lowest numbered class.

 

(2)        Submit a filing fee for each international class not covered by the fee(s) already paid (view the USPTO’s current fee schedule).  The application identifies goods and/or services that are classified in at least two classes; however, applicant submitted a fee(s) sufficient for only one class(es).  Applicant must either submit the filing fees for the classes not covered by the submitted fees or restrict the application to the number of classes covered by the fees already paid.

 

See 15 U.S.C. §§1051(b), 1112, 1126(e); 37 C.F.R. §§2.32(a)(6)-(7), 2.34(a)(2)-(3), 2.86(a); TMEP §§1403.01, 1403.02(c).

 

See an overview of the requirements for a Section 1(b) multiple-class application and how to satisfy the requirements online using the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) form.

 

TEAS Plus Status Lost

 

Applicant filed a TEAS Plus application that identified one or more goods and/or services from the USPTO’s U.S. Acceptable Identification of Goods and Services Manual (ID Manual) that used a fill-in-the-blank format.  However, applicant inserted wording in the identification that is clearly inappropriate or unrelated to the preceding goods.  At the time of filing, a TEAS Plus application must include an identification of goods and/or services from the ID Manual.  TMEP §819.01(g); see 37 C.F.R §2.22(a)(8).  By inserting inappropriate wording, applicant has, in effect, failed to submit an identification from the ID Manual.  See TMEP §819.01(g). 

 

Because applicant has not satisfied all the TEAS Plus application filing requirements, applicant must submit an additional processing fee of $125 per class.  See 37 C.F.R §§2.6(a)(1)(v), 2.22(c); TMEP §819.04.  The additional fee is required even if applicant later satisfies this requirement by deleting the unacceptable wording in the identification.  TMEP §819.01(g).

TEAS PLUS OR TEAS REDUCED FEE (TEAS RF) APPLICANTS – TO MAINTAIN LOWER FEE, ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MET, INCLUDING SUBMITTING DOCUMENTS ONLINE:  Applicants who filed their application online using the lower-fee TEAS Plus or TEAS RF application form must (1) file certain documents online using TEAS, including responses to Office actions (see TMEP §§819.02(b), 820.02(b) for a complete list of these documents); (2) maintain a valid e-mail correspondence address; and (3) agree to receive correspondence from the USPTO by e-mail throughout the prosecution of the application.  See 37 C.F.R. §§2.22(b), 2.23(b); TMEP §§819, 820.  TEAS Plus or TEAS RF applicants who do not meet these requirements must submit an additional processing fee of $125 per class of goods and/or services.  37 C.F.R. §§2.6(a)(1)(v), 2.22(c), 2.23(c); TMEP §§819.04, 820.04.  However, in certain situations, TEAS Plus or TEAS RF applicants may respond to an Office action by authorizing an examiner’s amendment by telephone or e-mail without incurring this additional fee.
