`
`
`MOTION IN OPPOSITION TO SUMMARY JUDGMENT
`
`COMES NOW Applicant, EPICSTONE GROUP, INC., by and through undersigned
`
`
`
`counsel, and files its Motion in Opposition to Motion to Dismiss, and in support hereof states:
`
`1.
`
`On October 7, 2014, Applicant EPICSTONE GROUP, INC. filed its Application No.
`
`86453720 for THE MOANA covering goods in Class 28.
`
`2.
`
`On October 20, 2014, Opposer issued its first press release to the public via Twitter
`
`stating that they were going to release a film entitled DISNEY MOANA.
`
`3. On November 13, 2014, Opposer, allegedly unaware of Opposer’s THE MOANA, filed
`
`its own Applications for the mark DISNEY MOANA.
`
`4.
`
` According to DISNEY, they did not learn of Opposer’s THE MOANA mark until
`
`December of 2014.
`
`5.
`
` This would indicate that DISNEY conducted no trademark search on USPTO.GOV or
`
`elsewhere prior to filing which would have alerted it to Applicant’s application and/or use of
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`THE MOANA. See International Star Class Yacht Racing Association v. Tommy Hilfiger
`
`U.S.A., 80 F.3d 749, 753-54 (2d Cir. 1996)..
`
`6.
`
`Further, it is clear from the Tweet that was sent to the public on October 20, 2014
`
`announcing the DISNEY MOANA film thirteen (13) days after Applicant’s application was
`
`filed, that Opposer either knew, or should have known, of Applicant’s mark and quickly took
`
`actions to intimate a bona fide intent to use DISNEY MOANA.
`
`SUMMARY JUDGMENT STANDARD
`
`A fact is genuinely in dispute if the evidence of record is such that a reasonable fact
`
`finder could return a verdict in favor of the nonmoving party. See Lloyd’s Food Products Inc. v.
`
`Eli’s Inc., 987 F.2d 766, 25 USPQ2d 2027 (Fed. Cir. 1993).
`
`The nonmoving party must be given the benefit of all reasonable doubt as to whether
`
`genuine issues of material fact exist, and the evidentiary record on summary judgment, and all
`
`inferences to be drawn from the undisputed facts, must be viewed in the light most favorable to
`
`the nonmoving party. See Opryland USA, Inc. v. Great American Music Show, Inc., 970 F.2d
`
`847, 23 USPQ2d 1471 (Fed. Cir. 1992); Olde Tyme Foods Inc. v. Roundy's Inc., 961 F.2d 200,
`
`22 USPQ2d 1542 (Fed. Cir. 1992).
`
`As a general rule, the factual question of intent is particularly unsuited to disposition on
`
`summary judgment. See Copelands’ Enterprises, Inc. v. CNV, Inc., 945 F.2d 1563, 20 USPQ2d
`
`1295 (Fed. Cir. 1991).
`
`The standard for Summary Judgment is when there are no genuine disputes as to
`
`material, thus leaving the case to be resolved as a matter of law. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c). The
`
`purpose of summary judgment is one of judicial economy where more evidence than is already
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`available in connection with the summary judgment motion could not reasonably be expected to
`
`change the result. Pure Gold, Inc. v. Syntex (U.S.A.), Inc., 739 F.2d 624, 626 (Fed. Cir. 1984).
`
`
`
`A party moving for summary judgment has the burden of demonstrating the absence of
`
`any genuine dispute as to material fact, and that it is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. See
`
`Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 323 (1986).
`
`The evidence must be viewed in a light most favorable to the non-movant, and all
`
`justifiable inferences are to be drawn in the non-movant’s favor. See Lloyd’s Food Products Inc.
`
`v. Eli’s Inc., 987 F.2d 766, 25 USPQ2d 2027 (Fed. Cir. 1993).
`
`APPLICANT’S USE AND REGISTRATION OF THE MOANA
`
`7.
`
`Prior to Opposer’s alleged use and alleged public recognition, Applicant took significant
`
`actions in connection with his use of the mark. See Applicant’s sworn Affidavit attached hereto
`
`as Exhibit A.
`
`8. Applicant states that “I sold a doll in New York City in 2015” (Jose Barreto Draft Deposition)
`
`at (22:25-23:2). “I think I sold around one or two. It was a little prototype I created.” (Id. at
`
`23:4-5). When asked where he obtained prototype dolls Applicant states “I bought – a company,
`
`a wholesaler called Ramco in Hialeah, Florida, and they are a retails/wholesaler. But they
`
`purchase their toys from a California company called Jide toys and __ but I bought the beginning
`
`one from Ramco.” (Id. at 23:15-20).
`
`9.
`
`This in addition to the fact that Applicant was first to use and apply to register the mark.
`
`10. With respect to Opposer’s claim concerning Applicant’s intent to use the goods covered
`
`by his marks, the Affidavit of Applicant shows that he had the will and ability to make use of the
`
`marks for the goods. See Pixel Intruments Corp. v. Sweven Corp., No. 97136, 1999 T.T.A.B.
`
`LEXIS 715 (T.T.A.B. Dec. 30, 1999) , denying summary judgment where the evidence showed
`
`
`
`3
`
`
`
`that applicant’s creation of an advertising brochure and graphic design efforts two months after
`
`its filing date was sufficiently contemporaneous to the filing date to indicate a bona fide intent to
`
`use the mark. The Wet Seal, Inc. v. FD Mgmt., Inc., 82 U.S.P.Q.2d 1629, 1633 (T.T.A.B. 2007)
`
`“Contrary to opposer’s contention, an application will not be deemed void for lack of a bona fide
`
`intention to use absent proof of fraud, or proof of a lack of bona fide intention to use the mark on
`
`all of the goods identified in the application, not just some of them.” Grand Canyon W. Ranch,
`
`LLC v. Hualapai Tribe, 78 U.S.P.Q.2d 1696, 1697 (T.T.A.B. 2006) – deleting some of the goods
`
`on a use based application where us on some but not all goods.
`
`OPPOSER’S ALLEGED USE AND RECOGNITION IN “DISNEY’S MOANA”
`
`11.
`
`Opposer also claims that it was the one with the bona fide intent to use its DISNEY’S
`
`MOANA mark. The evidence does not bear this out.
`
`12.
`
`Applicant was the first to apply for and use the mark.
`
`13.
`
`Opposer had a mere thought or consideration to use the mark, though it claims that it had
`
`wide “analogous” public recognition.
`
`14.
`
`Opposer’s own evidence shows that it did not have public recognition in its DISNEY
`
`MOANA trademark prior to Applicant’s adoption, filing and use of the mark.
`
`15.
`
`Opposer claims that “Opposer has priority based on its prior common law use analogous
`
`to trademark use of Opposer’s MOANA Marks in commerce in connection with Opposer’s film
`
`and other merchandise before the filing date of the opposed Application Serial No.86416943 and
`
`any date of first use that may be alleged by Applicant”
`
`16.
`
`Indeed, any claimed “public recognition” of Opposer’s mark prior to Applicant’s
`
`adoption, filing and use is belied by the discovery provided by Opposer showing no actual use by
`
`Opposer, but rather certain speculative leaks that Opposer might adopt the MOANA mark, or
`
`
`
`4
`
`
`
`even some wholly different mark. See Exhibit B showing no “likes” on the “analogous” uses
`
`claimed by Opposer.
`
`17.
`
`Rather than “worldwide recognition” the web pages cited by Opposer show that the
`
`public, other than a limited few speculators, were not aware of Opposer’s considered use of
`
`MOANA.
`
`18.
`
`Similar documents uncovered by Applicant, but not disclosed by Opposer, show that
`
`Opposer Disney had merely considered using the MOANA mark, and had actually considered
`
`changing the name given a third-party use of the mark in Italy by a pornographic star. See
`
`Exhibit C.
`
`19.
`
`Indeed, Opposer was merely considering whether to use its DISNEY MOANA mark and
`
`was considering various titles which were different than DISNEY MOANA, including
`
`“SPIRITED”. See Exhibit D.
`
`20.
`
`Opposer Disney is attempting to improperly commingle its fame with that of a mark it
`
`had not yet gained a bona fide intention to use.
`
`21.
`
`The documents provided to date by Disney show no bona fide intention to use the mark
`
`prior to Applicant’s adoption, application for and use of the mark.
`
`22. What Opposer is attempting to do is secure protection for a mark it may or may not have
`
`used by citing the company’s own fame.
`
`23.
`
`Illustrative of this issue is the fact that for the first time ever Disney has announced the
`
`name of movies it actually intends to use for the next four (4) years in the future, to cover up for
`
`not having a bona fide intention to use the subject mark, failing to apply for it, and failing to use
`
`it. It is settled law that Section 7(c) of the Trademark Act provides an intent-to-use applicant
`
`with superior rights over anyone adopting a mark after applicant’s filing date, contingent upon
`
`
`
`5
`
`
`
`applicant’s ultimate registration of the mark. Zirco Corporation v. American Telephone and
`
`Telegraph Company, 21 USPQ2d 1542 (TTAB 1991).
`
`OPPOSER’S AVOIDANCE OF DISCOVERY
`
`24.
`
`Applicant in good faith sought to take the deposition of the corporate representative of
`
`Opposer. See the attached Affidavit of Applicant as EXHIBIT A.
`
`25.
`
`Opposer repeatedly stated that discovery was “continuing” and that a deposition was
`
`premature until Opposer had produced all documents.
`
`26. Mere days prior to the Scheduled deposition of Opposer Disney, Opposer changed its
`
`designation of the person with the most knowledge of the MOANA mark.
`
`27.
`
`Two days prior to the confirmed deposition, Opposer filed its Motion for Summary
`
`Judgment and claimed that a deposition of Opposer was no longer relevant in this matter.
`
`28.
`
`Applicant had already confirmed a location, a court reporter, had sent a subpoena to
`
`Opposer’s witness, had rented a hotel, and obtain a rental vehicle. See Exhibit E
`
`29.
`
`The deposition was to show that Opposer Disney had made no use of the MOANA mark
`
`prior to Applicant’s adoption, filing and use of the mark. See Otto Roth & Company, Inc. v.
`
`Universal Foods Corporation, 640 F.2d 1317, 209 USPQ 40, 43 (CCPA 1981) (“the opposer
`
`must prove he has proprietary rights in the term he relies upon to demonstrate likelihood of
`
`confusion as to source, whether by ownership of a registration, prior use of a technical
`
`"trademark," prior use in advertising, prior use as a trade name, or whatever other type of use
`
`may have developed a trade identity.”).

`
`the marks were geographic in nature, the marks were in the Public Domain, the marks were
`
`generic, and I believed the marks were not famous enough to receive market penetration due to
`
`other formative registrations already registered and upon information and belief that the marks
`
`were freely available for use by anyone with a bona-fide intent to use the mark like Disney does

`
`allowed me to relabel their products with my brand. Also vendors KB Toys has over 700 toys

`
`On October 20, 2014, DISNEY ENTERPRISES, INC. (“Opposer”) issued its first
`
`Official Press Release to the public via Twitter stating that they were going to release a film
`
`entitled DISNEY MOANA ( follows the adventure of a Polynesian teenager).
`
`3.
`
`Here we go agaim for years, Disney Enterprises, have demonstrated a pattern of filing
`
`trademark applications based on book titles from the PUBLIC DOMAIN and monopolizing them
`
`moreover attacking whoever tries to also file a trademark based on Public Domain. Many of
`
`your classic DISNEY films were based on PUBLIC DOMAIN works. Much of the success of
`
`DISNEY Corporation is a result of building upon the great works of past authors (EXHIBIT).
`
`DISNEY‘S empire was created in large part from the PUBLIC DOMAIN, and it has ensured that
`
`no other future competitors could not re—use their material by manipulating the PUBLIC
`
`DOMAIN system that they have taken advantage of so many years. Now again Disney builds on
`
`another great work from 1926 by Director Robert J Flaherty’s titled “MOANA” (follows
`
`adventures and customs of Polynesian people). See Exhibit B, C, 0
