`
`NOTICE OF OPPOSITION
`
`Nexsys Electronics, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the state of New
`
`York, believes that it will be damaged by the registration of the mark shown in U.S.
`
`Trademark Application Serial No. 77/236024 in International Class 36 and, by and
`
`through its undersigned attorneys, hereby opposes the same.
`
`As grounds for opposition, it is alleged that:
`
`(
`
`1.
`
`Upon information and belief, Applicant Medlmpact Healthcare Systems, Inc.
`
`(hereinafter ”Applicant”) seeks to register the mark MEDWEB for services
`
`identified as ”pharmacy online benefit services, namely, online communication
`
`through internet website, website portal links, e—mail and web—based database
`
`060531.G0l5
`
`1
`
`LSK
`
`

`
`access for clients and pharmacies, and administration of pharmacy benefit plans,
`
`not including diagnostic medical imaging and physician practice management”
`
`in International Class 14.
`
`2.
`
`Upon information and belief, the subject application was filed on July 23, 2007
`
`and was published for opposition in the Official Gazette on June 17, 2008.
`
`Opposer timely filed an extension of time to file an opposition on July 18, 2008.
`
`3.
`
`Opposer is the owner of U.S. Registration No. 1999672 for the mark MEDWEB
`
`for
`
`”electronic transmission of data and documents via computer” in
`
`International Class 38 and ”computer services, namely providing access to
`
`computer databases in the field of diagnostic medical
`
`imaging; consulting
`
`services in the field of establishing and providing network services for medical
`
`imaging and diagnostics among medical practitioners and providers; leasing of
`
`computers” in International Class 42.
`
`4.
`
`Opposer is also the owner of US. Registration No. 2062099 for the mark
`
`MEDWEB for ”integrated computer hardware and software in the field of
`
`medical image communications and information” in International Class 9.
`
`5.
`
`Opposer adopted and commenced interstate use of the mark MEDWEB for its
`
`medical and computer related goods and services, including online databases
`
`060531.G0l5
`
`2
`
`LSK
`
`

`
`and information services, long prior to any date which may be lawfully claimed
`
`by Applicant.
`
`By virtue of its long use and advertising and promotion over many years,
`
`Opposer’s MEDWEB mark enjoys considerable notoriety and fame among the
`
`relevant public. By virtue of Opposer’s considerable sales as well as the high
`
`quality of
`
`its products and services, Opposer’s MEDWEB mark enjoys
`
`considerable and valuable good will for medical and computer related goods and
`
`services.
`
`When used in connection with the Applicant's services, Applicant's proposed
`
`mark so nearly resembles Opposer’s mark as to result in confusion, mistake,
`
`and/or deception in that the public will wrongly assume that Opposer has
`
`approved of Applicant, is affiliated with Applicant, or has otherwise sanctioned,
`
`sponsored, or licensed the goods and services of Applicant.
`
`If Applicant is permitted to use and register the above-referenced proposed mark
`
`for the services named, confusion, deception and /or mistake in the trade would
`
`likely occur, thereby causing damage and injury to Opposer. Persons familiar
`
`with Opposer’s MEDWEB mark would be likely to believe that Applicant's
`
`services are licensed by, sponsored by, or are in some way connected, related or
`
`associated with Opposer.

`

`
`LSK
`
`

`
`8.
`
`The registration of Applicant's mark will cause the dilution of the distinctive
`
`quality of Opposer’s mark, to Opposer’s irreparable damage.
`
`WHEREFORE, Opposer prays that this opposition be granted and that Applicant's
`
`Application Serial No. 77/236024 for the mark MEDWEB be abandoned.
`
`Respectfully submitted,
`
`NEXSYS ELECTRONICS, INC.
