`
`REGISTRANT’S MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF
`MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
`
`1
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`I. PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
`
`Petitioner Affinipay, LLC. filed a Petition to Cancel Trademark Registration Number
`
`1,962,072 on April 3, 2014. Registrant Medpay Systems, Inc. filed its Answer on May 19, 2014.
`
`Petitioner then served its Initial Disclosures on July 17, 2014 and Registrant served its Initial
`
`Disclosures on July 29, 2014.
`
`The Petition to Cancel is solely based on the allegation that Registrant has “abandoned”
`
`its trademark MEDPAY®. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56, upon the Affidavit of
`
`Justin Hassell and Exhibits thereto, Registrant, by its attorney Todd Wengrovsky, hereby moves for
`
`summary judgment in the above-referenced action.
`
`II. LEGAL STANDARDS
`
`
`
`
`
`Summary judgment is a favored procedural device, Avia Group Int’l, Inc. v. L. A. Gear Co.,
`
`Inc., 853 F.2d 1557, 1561 (Fed. Cir. 1988), which should be granted if “the pleadings, depositions,
`
`answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that
`
`there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to a judgment
`
`as a matter of law.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c). See also Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242,
`
`247-248 (1986); Karlin Technology, Inc. v. Surgical Dynamics, Inc., 177 F.3d 968, 970 (Fed. Cir.
`
`1999). A fact is “material” only if it “might affect the outcome of the suit under the governing
`
`law.” Anderson, 477 U.S. at 248. A dispute about a material fact is “genuine” only if “the evidence
`
`is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the non-moving party.” Id.
`
`The principles governing the grant of summary judgment are the same in trademark actions
`
`as in other actions. Fendi S.A.S. Di Paola Fendi E Sorelle v. Cosmetic World, Ltd., 642 F.Supp.
`
`1143, 1145 (S.D.N.Y. 1986).
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`Regarding Plaintiffs’ burden, a party opposing a properly supported motion for summary
`
`judgment “may not rest upon the mere allegations or denials of his pleading, but… must set forth
`
`specific facts showing that there is a genuine issue for trial.” Id. (quoting First National Bank of
`
`Arizona v. Cities Services Co., 391 U.S. 253 (1968). “If the evidence [opposing summary
`
`judgment] is merely colorable, or is not significantly probative, summary judgment may be
`
`granted.” Id. At 249-250 (citations omitted).
`
`Here, the pleadings are complete and the parties have exchanged initial disclosures. There
`
`are no genuine material issues of fact that would preclude summary judgment in Registrant’s favor.
`
`Such is particularly the case given the limited scope of the Petition – Petitioner alleges that
`
`Registrant is not using its trademark, but such is wildly false. It is respectfully submitted that
`
`Registrant’s Answer and this filing overwhelmingly establish that Registrant has not “abandoned”
`
`its trademark. As such, the Petition to Cancel is not plausible and Registrant’s Motion for
`
`Summary Judgment should be granted.
`
`III. ARGUMENT: REGISTRANT’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
`SHOULD BE GRANTED
`
`As noted in Registrant’s Answer, Petitioner’s allegation that Registrant has not used its
`
`trademark in commerce for the last three years is simply factually incorrect. There is a host of
`
`evidence to this effect, any portion of which would be sufficient to render the Petition implausible.
`
`Such is attached to and described by the Affidavit of Medpay Systems, Inc. President Justin
`
`Hassell, filed herewith.
`
`Per the Affidavit, Registrant MedPay is a company engaged in offering healthcare patient
`
`payment services. Respondent Affinipay is a competitor to MedPay who also offers healthcare
`
`patient payment services. MedPay has routinely engaged with both its healthcare provider clients
`
`3
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`and its healthcare patient clients on an ongoing daily basis from 1995 to the present, including during
`
`the last three years (hereinafter the “Relevant Period”). Simply put, Registrant routinely receives and
`
`handles both patient and provider customer service inquiries on a daily basis.
`
`Attached as Exhibit A is a true and correct copy of screen shots from MedPay’s website—
`
`medpaydirect.com—displaying the MEDPAY® trademark, as well the National Toll-Free telephone
`
`number (800) 633-7299, which number spells out (800) MEDPAY9. This website has been active
`
`at all times during Relevant Period. See attached Exhibit A-1 for WHOIS registry data
`
`evidencing the creation date of the website. The website and National Toll-Free Telephone
`
`Number have been routinely accessed by both Registrant’s healthcare provider clients, and by
`
`Registrant’s healthcare patient clients during the Relevant Period. The website also displays the
`
`company’s general e-mail address contact@medpaydirect.com for direct e-mail communications.
`
`It has been active and running at all times during the Relevant Period.
`
`Attached as Exhibit B is a true and correct copy of screen shots from the
`
`“Trademark/Copyright Notice” of MedPay’s website, clearly indicating that MEDPAY® is a
`
`registered trademark, and displaying the USPTO Trademark Registration number 1962072, and
`
`further including the statement “and is protected under applicable federal copyright and trademark
`
`laws”. This page has been up at all relevant times during the Relevant Period.
`
`Attached as Exhibit C is a true and correct copy of screen shots from the “Contact Us” page
`
`of MedPay’s website, which provides a contact form submission directly to Registrant. Such form
`
`has been used for contact submissions during the Relevant Period.

`The “Contact Us” page of MedPay’s website was used by John Porter, the C o-
`
`Founder and CFO of the Petitioner Affinipay, to contact Registrant directly on August 30, 2013.
`
`Attached as Exhibit D is a true and correct copy of the contact form submission sent by Mr.
`4

`shown in Exhibit D-1.

`
`MedPay or its employees. Copies of the renewal bills dated March 11, 2011 and March 8, 2014 are
`
`also attached. This bond is currently in full force and effect, and has been in full force and effect at

`
`specifically during the Relevant Period, most of which are still active. These are but a few of the

`and collected comprises evidence of services recently and continuously performed under the

`
`Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”), this limited disclosure is made with the written

`
`8
`
`follows:
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`2011
`2012
`2013
`2014
`Total
`
`$264,340.43 (4/01/2011-12/31/2011)
`$331,452.83
`
`$326,744.42
`
`$73,454.95 (1/01/2014-4/01/2014)
`$995,992.63
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Attached as Exhibit U is a true and correct copy of the most recent Biennial Statement filed by
`
`MEDPAY SYSTEMS, INC. with the New York Department of State, Division of Corporations on May 2,
`
`2013, and indicating a next filing period of April, 2015.
`
`Attached hereto as Exhibit V are true and correct copies of 11 pages of Justin Hassell’s actual
`
`hand written sales and marketing notes of specific Hospitals, and specific Hospital Executives, each of
`
`whom were mailed the “MedPay® Provider Sales Brochure 1” (See Exhibit I), in April, 2011. Said
`
`brochure was then followed by a second form letter (See Exhibit G) from MedPay® on May 4, 2011. Most
`
`of the individual Hospital Executives on this list were thereafter called by Mr. Hassell personally on the
`
`specific date in May, 2011 which is indicated in the handwritten notes. The notation “L/M” refers to the
`
`fact that Mr. Hassell personally left a voice message for the specific Hospital Executive on the specific
`
`date indicated in the notes, following up on the MedPay® sales and marketing materials that had at the time
`
`been recently mailed. These are exact copies of Mr. Hassell’s original notes from April/May 2011.
`
`It is respectfully submitted that the foregoing overwhelmingly establishes that Registrant has
`
`not “abandoned” its trademark. To the contrary, Registrant’s use of its trademark is active and
`
`ongoing by any reasonable measures of business activity. As such, the Petition to Cancel should be
`
`dismissed in its entirety without further proceedings, and Registrant’s Motion for Summary
`
`Judgment should be granted.
`
`9
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`
`Due to all of the foregoing, Registrant requests that the Petition to Cancel be dismissed in its
`
`entirety with prejudice, and that Registrant’s Motion for Summary Judgment be granted.
