`In view of the substantial similarity between the respective marks, the commercial
`
`relationship between the Applicant’s Goods and Opposer’s Goods and Services, registration of
`
`Applicant’s Marks are likely to cause confusion, mistake or deception to purchasers as to the
`
`source of Applicant’s goods, and therefore it is requested that registration to Applicant be
`
`refused under Section 2(d) of the Trademark Act.
`
`WHEREFORE, Opposer believes that it will be damaged by the registration of
`
`Applications Serial Nos. 88354132 for ATAS and 88332991 for ATO and respectfully requests
`
`that registration be refused and this opposition be sustained.
