`
`NOTICE OF OPPOSITION
`
`Xellia Pharmaceuticals ApS, a limited liability company duly organized and existing
`
`
`
`
`
`under the laws of Denmark, having an address of Dalslandsgade 11, Copenhagen S Denmark
`
`DK2300, believes that it is or will be damaged by the registration of Trademark Application
`
`Serial No. 86/067225 for the mark CELLIA, and hereby opposes said applications.
`
`
`
`The grounds for opposition are as follows:
`
`1. Applicant, Medical Devices and Services, Inc., a corporation duly organized and
`
`existing under the laws of Delaware, having an address of c/o Sandra F. Singer, Esq. 250 W.
`
`57th Street, Suite 501 New York, NY 10107, filed an application for the mark CELLIA (Serial
`
`No. 86/067225) on September 17, 2013 based on §1(b) of the Lanham Act for “a kit for drawing
`
`blood from the body, separating out the platelets, and harvesting the platelets for reinjection into
`
`the body for nonsurgical cosmetic and aesthetic treatment, that consists of blood component
`
`separation apparatus for medical purposes” in International Class 10 (“Applicant’s Mark”).
`
`

`
`2. Applicant’s Mark published for opposition on April 8, 2014. Opposer filed, and
`
`the Board approved, extensions of time to oppose Applicant’s Mark until October 5, 2014. This
`
`Notice of Opposition is timely filed.
`
`3. Since before Applicant’s September 17, 2013 filing date, Opposer has been using
`
`the mark XELLIA in the U.S. and abroad in connection with a wide variety of pharmaceutical and
`
`medical products, and related services.
`
`4. Opposer is the owner of U.S. Registration No. 4381514 for the mark XELLIA in
`
`connection with the following goods and services (“Opposer’s goods and services”):
`
`
`
`Chemicals used in industry and science, namely, antibiotic, anti-infective, anti-
`viral, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory active pharmaceutical ingredients for use
`in the pharmaceutical and veterinary industry; bulk chemicals for use in the
`manufacture of pharmaceutical and veterinary preparations, in International Class
`1.
`
`
`Pharmaceutical and veterinary preparations, namely, anti-infective, anti-viral,
`antibiotic, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory preparations in bulk and finished
`dosage form for medical and veterinary purposes, not for use as finished
`diagnostic preparations and specifically excluding finished pharmaceutical
`preparations in the form of tablets as well as cardiovascular finished
`pharmaceutical preparations; sanitary preparations for medical purposes, not for
`use as finished diagnostic preparations; dietetic substances adapted for medical
`use, namely, foods; disinfectants for sanitary and medical purposes; preparations
`for destroying vermin; fungicides; herbicides, in International Class 5.
`
`Medical apparatus for introducing pharmaceutical preparations into the human
`body, specifically excluding cardiovascular preparations, in International Class
`10.
`
`Medical and scientific research services in the field of anti-infectives, anti-virals,
`antibiotics, anti-fungals and anti-inflammatories; pharmaceutical, pharmaceutical
`ingredient and chemical development services; chemical and pharmaceutical
`research services and pharmaceutical drug development services; design and
`development of computer software for use in relation to medical services, in
`International Class 42.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`

`
`U.S. Registration No. 4381514 registered on August 13, 2013 under §66A of the Lanham
`
`Act (and was filed on October 14, 2009).
`
`5. Opposer’s XELLIA Mark has not been cancelled, is valid and is now in full force
`
`and effect.
`
`6. Opposer adopted and began using Opposer’s Mark before Applicant applied for
`
`federal registration of Applicant’s Mark in the United States.
`
`7. Opposer has advertised and promoted Opposer’s L Marks extensively. Opposer
`
`has also made substantial sales of products and services under said Opposer’s Mark. As a result
`
`of such use and promotion, Opposer’s Mark has developed, and represents, valuable goodwill
`
`inuring to the benefit of Opposer.
`
`8. Opposer’s Mark is well known in the relevant industry.
`
`9. The filing date, registration date and dates of first use of Opposer’s Mark predates
`
`Applicant's filing date and use (if any) of Applicant’s CELLIA Mark; priority is not an issue.
`
`Opposer’s use has been valid and continuous since its date of first use and has not been
`
`abandoned. Opposer’s prior and continuous use of Opposer’s Mark renders Opposer the prior
`
`user of Opposer’s Mark with exclusive rights to use said marks in commerce on Opposer’s
`
`goods and services. Applicant’s Mark is intended for use on goods that are highly related to the
`
`goods specified in the registration of Opposer’s Mark and is within Opposer’s normal field of
`
`expansion.
`
`10. Upon information and belief, Applicant had knowledge of the fact that Opposer
`
`used and registered Opposer’s Mark before it adopted Applicant’s Mark.
`
`11. Applicant’s Mark is highly similar in overall appearance and sound to Opposer’s
`
`Mark.
`
`
`
`
`

`
`12. Applicant’s alleged goods are closely related to the goods and services marketed
`
`and sold by Opposer in connection with Opposer’s Mark, and for which Opposer owns a
`
`registration. For example, kits for drawing blood are commonly used when rendering
`
`pharmaceutical research services and pharmaceutical drug development services. For these and
`
`other reasons, the goods and services of the parties are closely related.
`
`13. Upon information and belief, Opposer’s goods and Applicant’s goods will be
`
`offered in the same channels of trade to the same consumers or class of consumers.
`
`14. In view of the similarity of the parties’ marks in overall appearance and sound,
`
`and the related nature of the goods and services of the respective parties, Applicant’s Mark so
`
`resembles Opposer's Mark so as to result in a likelihood of confusion regarding the sources of
`
`the respective goods and services.
`
`15. Opposer’s Mark is symbolic of extensive good will and consumer recognition
`
`built up by Opposer through substantial amounts of time and effort in advertising and promotion.
`
` In view of the similarity of the respective marks and the similar nature of the goods and services
`
`of the respective parties, Applicant’s Mark so resemble Opposer's Mark as to be likely to cause
`
`confusion, or to cause mistake or to deceive.
`
`
`
`16.
`
` Because the goods and services are highly related, and that the marks are
`
`confusingly similar, use and registration of Applicant’s Mark is likely to cause confusion,
`
`mistake, or deception that Applicant’s goods are those of Opposer, or are otherwise endorsed,
`
`sponsored, or approved by Opposer for use with Opposer’s products causing further damage to
`
`Opposer.
`
`17. Use and registration of Applicant’s mark is likely to dilute the distinctiveness of
`
`Opposer’s Mark.
`
`
`
`
`

`
` 18. Registration of Applicant’s Mark will result in damage to Opposer under the
`
`provisions of Section 2 of the U.S. Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C. Sections 1052 and 1125 pursuant
`
`to the allegations stated above.
`
`
`
`WHEREFORE, Opposer prays that registration of Applicant’s Mark be refused under
`
`15 U.S.C. § 1063 and that this Opposition be sustained in favor of Opposer.
