`Applicant
`
`Opposition No. 91203898
`
`APPLICANT’S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF APPLICANT’S CROSS MOTION FOR
`
`SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND IN OPPOSITION TO OPPOSER’S MOTION FOR
`SUMMARY UDGMENT
`
`Applicant timely submits this reply brief and moves for an order granting summary
`
`judgment against Opposer and for dismissal of this Opposition.
`
`I. SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE
`
`Deadlines: The last Board order mandated that Opposer E a reply brief with the TTAB
`
`by a deadline that expired on September 16, 2013. Applicant believes that Opposer did not meet
`
`the filing deadline and requests an investigation by the Board.
`
`Ungleaded Claims: Opposer did not plead suggestiveness or secondary meaning in the
`
`pleadings. (Ex. 5) Opposer’s pleadings allege common law rights, but Opposer did not specify
`
`whether Opposer’s marks have inherent distinctiveness or acquired distinctiveness. (Ex. 5)
`
`TTAB judges and many attorneys recommend using statutory language in pleadings (Ex.
`
`1A, D12). Besides failing to use language from 15 USC 1052 (Exs. 2A, D13), Opposer did not
`
`use the words suggestive, secondary meaning, or acquired distinctiveness in the pleadings. (Ex.
`
`5). Opposer did not plead facts indicating that thought or perception are required to determine the
`
`nature of Opposer’s goods and/or services and Opposer didn’t plead facts alleging that mult—step
`
`reasoning must be utilized to determine Opposer’s goods/services. (Ex. 5) Opposer did not plead
`
`that Opposer“ marks identify a single source. (EX. 5) Also, Opposer did not plead facts
`
`concerning length of use in commerce in the U.S., advertising expenditures, sales revenues, or
`
`

`
`survey evidence. (Ex 5). Section 4, Section 8, and/or other sections of Opposer’s pleadings are
`
`n_ot sufficient to provide notice of claims of suggestiveness or secondary meaning. (Ex. 5).
`
`Pleadings should provide fair notice of claims and Applicant should not be required to
`
`guess the claims against which it is defending. ChaCha Search Inc. v. Grape Technology Group,
`
`3 105 U.S.P.Q.2d 1298 (TTAB Dec. 27, 2012). (Ex, 3A, Page 6) Pleadings should be
`
`construed as to do substantial justice. FRCP 8(f) (Ex. 4A) Substantial injustice would result if the
`
`Board rules that Opposer pleaded secondary meaning and suggestiveness.
`
`Inadmissible Evidence: Applicant has already objected & continues to object to
`
`Opposer relying on unpleaded claims of secondary meaning and suggestiveness. Applicant
`
`objects to Opposer’s arguments & evidence regarding secondary meaning and suggestiveness
`
`(because such arguments and evidence are not admissible). Applicant made timely objections &
`
`Applicant consent to a trial on the issues of suggestiveness or secondary meaning.
`
`Lack of Standing: Since Opposer did not plead suggestiveness or secondary meaning
`
`and did not plead sufficient facts for such claims, (Ex. 5) Opposer clearly does not have standing.
`
`Lack of Priority: Due to inadmissibility of Opposer’s evidence concerning secondary
`
`meaning and suggestiveness, (Ex. 5) Opposer does not have priority. Applicant also used &
`
`promoted a legally equivalent mark starting on October 18, 2006. (Exs. 5A, D15) Applicant’s
`
`analogous use of “Beautiful People Magazine” can be tacked to the constructive use date for US
`
`Application No. 85,196,831. (Exs. 5A, D15) Thus, Applicant’s mark clearly has priority.
`
`Lack of Likelihood of Confusion: Opposer’s arguments and evidence regarding
`
`likelihood of confusion are irrelevant because Opposer does not have priority. A disclaimed term
`
`can’t be ignored & marks must be evaluated in their entirety. Disclaimers do not affect
`
`commercial impression greatly since most purchasers are not aware that part of a mark is
`
`disclaimed. Industria Espanola de Perlas Imitacion, S.A. V. National Silver Co., 459 F.2d 1049,
`
`59 (1972) Also, Applicant & Opposer are not competitors plus Applicant’s goods are very
`
`different from those of Opposer. (EX. 3)
`
`

`
`Additionally, internet material is generally accepted as competent evidence in
`
`examination and can be used to determine the registrability of marks. Lastly, Applicant’s goods
`
`will sell for $1.50 per month for each download and Applicant’s goods will be more subject to
`
`impulse buying than those of Opposer. Regardless, Opposer’s argument for likelihood of
`
`confusion is irrelevant because Opposer does not have priority.
`
`Determining Suggestiveness or Descriptiveness: Opposer’s arguments and evidence
`
`regarding suggestiveness are inadmissible because Opposer did not plead suggestiveness and did
`
`not plead sufficient facts supporting a claim of suggestiveness. (Ex. 5) Applicant already made
`
`pertinent objections and Applicant does not consent to trial of this issue. However, it is clear from
`
`Opposer’s websites plus dictionary definitions for “beautiful” and “people.” (Exs. 6,12—13; Exs.
`
`D1 and D8) that no thought or mental leap is required to determine the nature of Opposer’s
`
`goods/services. Opposer’s argument that consumers have Varying notions of “beauty” is
`
`undermined by Opposer’s advertising campaigns which publicize that fat people or physically
`
`unattractive people are not acceptable. (Exs. 15, 6A; Exs. D9, D16) Thus, Opposer advertises
`
`the standards of beauty that Opposer desires for Opposer’s goods/services to consumers via
`
`Opposer’s marketing campaigns. (Exs. 15, 6A; Exs. D9, D16)
`
`Opposer also cites the wrong test for determining whether a mark is suggestive or
`
`descriptive. For descriptiveness, the relevant question is whether someone who knows what the
`
`goods or services are will understand the mark to convey information about them. In re Tower
`
`Tech Inc., 64 USPQ2d 1314, 1316-17 (TTAB 2002). From Opposer’s website, it is clear that
`
`Opposer’s goods & services feature “beautiful people” as defined by the dictionary (Exs. 6,12—13;
`
`Exs. D1, D8 ). Thus, someone who knows what Opposer’s goods and services are will
`
`understand the alleged marks to convey information about the goods or services. Lastly, Opposer
`
`conceded the descriptive nature of Opposer’s marks by filing US Application No. 85/264026 on
`
`the Supplemental Register. (Exs.6, 14; Ex. D6) and the trademark examiner stated that Opposer’s
`
`marks were merely descriptive. (Exs.6, 14; Ex. D6)
`
`

`
`Lack of Secondary Meaning: Opposer’s arguments and evidence regarding secondary
`
`meaning are r1_o_t admissible because Opposer did not plead secondary meaning or plead sufficient
`
`facts to support a claim for secondary meaning. (Ex. 5) Applicant has made pertinent objections
`
`and Applicant &%__I@ consent to trial of this issue. Also, Opposer did not file a claim under 15
`
`USC 1052 (Ex. 2A) for acquired distinctiveness.
`
`Opposer did not provide evidence of sales of goods in the US and/or of annual US sales
`
`broken down by revenue from consumer subscriptions versus revenue from advertising sales.
`
`Also, Opposer provided no evidence of sales revenue or advertising revenue from Opposer’s
`
`services and Opposer provided no evidence of the number of monthly unique views of Opposer’s
`
`TV show from US consumers. Additionally, Opposer didn’t provide monthly or annual
`
`advertising expenditures. Survey evidence, which is key to determining whether consumers
`
`believe Opposer’s marks identify a single source, was not provided by Opposer.
`
`Opposer has conceded that other entities use ‘beautiful people” in the US. (Exs. 7A,
`
`D17). DateBeautifulPeople.com (Exs. 7A, D17) illustrates substantial use in Opposer’s industry
`
`and this undermines Opposer’s claim of substantially exclusive use. Also, media coverage that
`
`Opposer has received was “solicited” via Opposer’s advertising campaigns (Exs. 15, 6A; Exs.
`
`D9, D16)
`
`Opposer’s Fraudulent Conduct and Unclean Hands: Opposer’s alleged use of
`
`Opposer’s marks for a TV show and for calendars does not satisfy the “use in commerce”
`
`requirement. For goods, "use in commerce" requires the physical movement of the product in, or
`
`to, the US. For services, minimal U.S. activities are insufficient to establish "use in commerce."
`
`(Exs. 8A, D18) Use of a mark in advertising in the U.S. for services available only outside of the
`
`US will not suffice to establish use of the mark "in commerce." (Exs. 8A, D18)
`
`Opposer provided no evidence of sales of calendars in the US on or before the filing date
`
`of Opposer’s applications. Opposer provided no evidence of advertising the calendars in the
`
`

`
`United States. Even if Opposer advertised the calendars in the US, such action is insufficient to
`
`satisfy use “in commerce” if the calendars were not sold in the United States. (Exs. 8A, D18)
`
`Additionally, Opposer provided no evidence that the TV show was wholly or partly based
`
`in the U.S on or before the filing date of Opposer’s applications. Opposer’s specimens show use
`
`of Opposer’s mark in Canada for a reality TV (not the U.S.). (Exs. 6, D6) Opposer provided no
`
`evidence of advertising the reality TV show in the US. Even if Opposer advertised the TV show
`
`in the US, the services of the TV show were only available in Canada and this does not constitute
`
`use “in commerce.” (Exs. 8A, D18) Opposer provided no evidence of the number of unique
`
`visitors per month or per year from the US to webpages displaying Opposer’s reality TV show.
`
`9
`
`Opposer’s evidence for the calendars and the TV show does not prove use “in commerce’
`
`on or before the filing date of Opposer’s applications and thus the Hirago v. Arena case does not
`
`apply. Opposer knowingly submitted materially false specimens and materially false dates of use
`
`to deceive the USPTO and Opposer’s conduct constitutes fraud (and unclean hands).
`
`Opposer’s marks were not in use in commerce prior to the filing date of US Application
`
`No. 85,196,831 & Opposer’s applications are void ab initio. It is also too late for Opposer to
`
`correct the false representations in Opposer’s applications because Applicant has challenged the
`
`false representations. (Exs. 9A, D1 1) (University Games Corp V 201 2.net, Inc, 87 USPQ 2d 1465,
`
`1468. (TTAB 2008), Hurley International LLC v. Volta, 82 USPQ2d 1339 (TTAB 2007).
`
`Concessions by Opposer: All issues from pages 1-2 of Applicant’s First Amended
`
`Opposition to Opposer’s Motion for Summary Judgment & Applicant’s Cross Motion for
`
`Summary Judgment that Opposer did not address are thereby conceded by Opposer. Opposer
`
`also expressly admitted that Opposer did not claim dilution or false suggestion of a connection.
`
`Applicant’s Evidence: Applicant’s evidence, which is properly authenticated, is
`
`indicated via citations and exhibits. Applicant’s citations mean that supporting evidence is found
`
`in Applicant’s exhibits, including but not limited to, exhibits in that particular citation.
`
`

`
`To support the fraud allegation, Applicant presented Applicant’s discovery requests plus
`
`Opposer’s answers and this is admissible evidence under the TBMP 528.05. (Exs. 7, 8; Ex. D10)
`
`Applicant also submitted documents produced by Opposer in response to discovery requests and
`
`this is admissible. See TBMP 528.05 (Exs. 7-8; Ex. D10) The materially false specimens
`
`submitted by Opposer have been included as evidence. (Exs. 6, D6)
`
`Additionally, Applicant’s argument concerning lack of suggestiveness of Opposer’s
`
`marks (see pages 4 -6 of Applicant’s last filing) sets forth admissible arguments and Applicant
`
`provides admissible evidence to support Applicant’s claims. (Exs. 6-13; Exs. D1 & D8)
`
`Applicant’s arguments concerning class of purchasers are supported by Opposer’s answers to
`
`discovery and by print outs from Opposer’s webpages (which are all properly authenticated via
`
`declaration and/or other methods.) (Exs. 6-8; Exs. D1 through D10)
`
`The evidence proves that Opposer does Qhave subsisting, valid common law
`
`trademarks and that Applicant’s mark is no_t likely to cause confusion, mistake, or deception as to
`
`source, sponsorship or affiliation with Opposer’s marks. Also, the evidence confirms Applicant’s
`
`right to register US Application 85,196,831 and Applicant has alleged facts plus provided
`
`evidence sufficient to entitle Applicant to judgment in this opposition.
`
`H. CONCLUSION
`
`Based on facts and case law, Applicant respectfully requests that its cross motion for
`
`summary judgment be granted and registration of US Application 85,196,831 be allowed.
`
`Wherefore Applicant prays that the TTAB deny Opposer’s Motion for Summary
`
`Judgment and that this opposition be dismissed with prejudice in favor of Applicant.
`
`Wherefore, Applicant prays that the TTAB grant Applicant’s Cross Motion for Summary
`
`Judgment, and that registration of US. Application No. 85,196,831) be allowed.

`
`‘Sharing opinions on'po'tential orzline dating partners is also fun. If you're not sure about a match one way ‘or the other,
`asking a friend is the ideal way forward. They can help you make up your mind and may spot something you didn't think
`of, positive or negative.
`
`Two friends using the same dating websites man also double date when it comes iirnato meet up In person. That makes
`the process of meeting strangers much safer and it takes some of the pressure off. You can he sure that you'll get along
`with at least one person on your big night out, and having a friend along is a great idea for shy men and women, just to
`provide a Iittie extra moral support.
`
`So if ‘you're thinking about online dating, why "not team up with one or two single friends and" try it lnogetheriifiven if
`none of you finds the love of their life, you'll still have a good time and have plenty to talk about. There is nothing to
`lose. so ask your friends and see who is lrrterated in joining up with you.
`Every woman would like to find a gorgeous guy wibi a great car, a highly-paid job, gleaming muscles, perfect hair, a
`generous nature and a wonderful sense of humour. Every guy wants a beautiful woman with an incredlbie sense of style 14 Jun
`and sophistication. Everyone would love a partner who likes the same kind of music and has the same favourite food,
`201.1.
`but, as our mothers always say, nobody is perfect. Finding someone who ticks all those boxes isn't easy.
`
`Internet dating and
`compromise
`
`Just how n‘1u'r:h'sho‘uld you 'C0Thl5T0m5§€ V011? Wfinfiftfie perfect partner? Una of the great advantages to using caring
`sites is that there are thousands of potential mates to choose from. The more people there are, the more likely it is that
`the perfect guy or girl will be in the robe somewhere.
`
`The first few profiles you see on‘ ‘dating sites probably won't be absotutely everything you want in a partner -. or at least,
`they won't appear to be. However, you should always remember that internet dating profiles aren't the whole story. A
`person's profile may not do them justice. and by skipping over it you might lose the chance to find out that the owner is
`incredibly funny or that they've always wanted to travel to Paris, just like you.
`
`Bored of the club
`scene
`
`There is no need to compromise when internet dating. but it is important to give‘ p’eople”a chance. If in doubt, send a
`message and see what happens. If the reply isn't what you hoped for, there are plenty more fish in the sea.
`Not‘ everyone loves clubbing‘. Suite; the thumping music and expensive cocktails‘ can be fun sorneitlmes, but as a way to
`meet a new boyfriend or girlfriend the club scene ieava a lot to be desired. First off, it's dark in there. so a person that 18 Jun
`looks luscious in their rnaiteup and best going-out clothes may not look so gorgeous in broad daylight. Daring someone
`201.1.
`you met in the dark can be a rude shock.
`
`Secondly, night clubs are by nature loud. They're‘ great piacesfordancing bbtnol: so "great for 'cdr'n'r'e'r‘s‘ation, and while
`dating someone with fantastic moves is good fun, it'll soon wear thin if you don't have more in common than that.
`Sooner or later you'll want to do more than just dance.
`
`‘
`
`Dieting websites are completely different. oniine you usually get to see at‘ least one or two‘ pictures, so you have a fair
`idea what the guy or girl actually looks like in a good light, and it's all about conversation. Whether you chat or
`exchange messages, it’s easy to get an idea about whether or not you have a similar atfitude and enjoy similar things.
`
`There is ‘one other advantage dating webssts have over -clubs: it’: very clear what a potential date‘s. intentions are; In 3
`club, it's hard to figure out whether i:hey'rejust flirting, have a girlfriend ora boyfriend already, and even whether
`they're gay or straight. Online, all the information you need is there up front. it saves a lot of time and quite a bit of
`needless embarrassment.
`It can be quite tempting to bend the truth a little sonletimes, and on dating sites'i:hat's doubly h-Lie‘. Afterail, vi-ho‘will
`Honest online dating know if a guy adds a couple oflnches to his height or a woman uses a picture that's a few years old and no longer quite 23 Jun
`so accurate?
`2011
`
`The answer is nobody when you first start out in the amine dating world, out sooner or later it'll be _time‘to'm'cive' off the
`internet and into the real world. Then there is no way to hide the truth, and worse, you'll have to own-up to the
`deception. A little white lie or two may not seem like much, out in the early stages of any relationship trust is vitally
`important.
