`
`9.
`
`Since at least as early as March 1, 2013, Petitioner has used and continues to use the

`
`10.
`
`By way of a request for extension of protection to the United States under Section 66(a)
`
`of the Trademark Act of 1946, as amended, namely, U.S. Serial No. 79/224,869 based
`
`on International Registration No. 1384459, Aero Health seeks to register the mark
`
`depicted below with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) as a
`
`trademark for use in connection with “[m]edical adhesive tapes for bandaging, strapping
`
`and other medical or surgical purposes; adhesive dressing strips for medical and surgical
`
`purposes; medical plasters, including adhesive plasters and first aid plasters, for medical
`
`and surgical purposes; bandages,
`
`including adhesive bandages, compression
`
`bandages, surgical bandages, elastic bandages, gauze bandages and synthetic non-
`
`
`
`
`4
`
`

`

`adhesive bandages; absorbent medical and surgical dressings; and first aid kits” in
`
`International Class 5:
`
`AEROPLAST
`
`See the attached Exhibit D, which is a current printout of information from the electronic
`
`database records of the Office showing the current status and title of application Serial
`
`No. 79/224,869.
`
`Count I-Priority/Likelihood of Confusion
`
`11.
`
`Petitioner restates and incorporates by reference each and every allegation set forth in
`
`Paragraphs 1-10 of this Petition for Cancellation.
`
`12.
`
`Petitioner, for many years and since long prior to any date of first use or date of
`
`constructive use upon which Registrant can rely, has adopted and continuously used the
`
`distinctive AERO HEALTHCARE mark and Aero Logo in commerce in the United States.
`
`13.
`
`There is no issue as to priority. Petitioner’s date of first use in commerce for its AERO
`
`HEALTHCARE mark and trade name, and Aero Logo and its date of constructive use for
`
`its AERO HEALTHCARE mark is well prior to the dates of first use set forth in the
`
`Registration and well prior to the filing date of Registrant’s Application that resulted in the
`
`Registration.
`
`14.
`
`The Aero Logo and Petitioner’s AERO HEALTHCARE mark and trade name, and the
`
`Registered Mark are highly similar in sight, sound and commercial impression, and as
`
`such, a likelihood of confusion exists between Petitioner’s Aero Logo and Petitioner’s
`
`AERO HEALTHCARE mark and trade name, and the Registered Mark.
`
`15.
`
`Petitioner’s Aero Logo and Petitioner’s AERO HEALTHCARE mark and trade name, and
`
`the Registered Mark are highly similar in sight, sound and commercial impression, and
`
`as such, a likelihood of confusion exists between Petitioner’s Aero Logo and Petitioner’s
`
`
`
`
`5
`
`

`

`AERO HEALTHCARE mark and trade name, and the Registered Mark.
`
`16.
`
`The Aero Health Goods and Services and Aero Healthcare Services, and the Registered
`
`Goods are highly related.
`
`17.
`
`Registrant’s use of the Registered Mark, in connection with the Registered Goods so
`
`resembles the Aero Logo when used in connection with any of the Aero Health Goods
`
`and Services, and so resembles the AERO HEALTHCARE mark when used in
`
`connection with any of the Aero Healthcare Services, as to be likely to cause confusion,
`
`or to cause mistake, or to deceive.
`
`18.
`
`Petitioner has been and will continue to be damaged by the continued registration of the
`
`Registered Mark, including, but not limited to the fact that Petitioner has been refused
`
`registration in Class 10 of the AERO Logo on the Principal Register on grounds of a
`
`likelihood of confusion with the Registered Mark, and therefore may not obtain the
`
`procedural and evidentiary advantages and presumptions to which Petitioner would be
`
`entitled from a registration on the Principal Register.
`
`
`
`
`
`WHEREFORE, for the foregoing reasons, Petitioner respectfully requests that the
`
`Trademark Trial and Appeal Board cancel U.S. Registration No. 4,773,671.
