`BEFORE THE TRADEMARK TRIAL AND APPEAL BOARD
`
`
`
`In the Matter of Supplemental Trademark Registration No. 4,783,634
`for the Mark DAT BOOTCAMP
`
`Bootcamp Prep, LLC,
`
`
`vs.
`
`Orgoman LLC,
`
`
`
`
`
`Petitioner,
`
`
`
`Respondent.

`
`
`
`
`Cancellation No: ____________________
`
`/
`
`
`
`
`Bootcamp Prep, LLC (“Petitioner”), a Florida limited liability company located at 5196
`
`PETITION TO CANCEL
`
`Isleworth Country Club Drive, Windermere, FL 34786, believes that it will be damaged by the
`
`continued registration of the mark DAT BOOTCAMP as shown in U.S. Supplemental Trademark
`
`Registration No. 4,783,634 owned by Orgoman LLC (“Respondent”), which is purportedly used
`
`in connection with services in International Class 41, and hereby petitions to cancel the
`
`registration.
`
`The grounds for the petition are as follows:
`
`PETITIONER’S MARK
`
`1.
`
`Petitioner is a limited liability company duly incorporated under the laws of Florida.
`
`Petitioner provides educational test preparation services online through a website at the domain
`
`name <datbootcamp.com>.
`
`2.
`
`Since at least as early as January of 2013, Petitioner has used the mark DAT
`
`BOOTCAMP in interstate commerce in connection with the provision of its test preparation
`
`services (“Petitioner’s Mark”).
`
`

`

`
`
`3.
`
`Petitioner has expended significant resources in promoting its services offered
`
`under the mark DAT BOOTCAMP. As a result of Petitioner’s efforts and continuous use, the
`
`mark DAT BOOTCAMP has acquired secondary meaning in the minds of consumers as a
`
`designation of source for Petitioner’s educational services. Consumers have come to rely on the
`
`mark DAT BOOTCAMP to identify Petitioner’s services and to distinguish them from the
`
`services of its competitors. As such, Petitioner maintains valuable trademark rights in the mark
`
`DAT BOOTCAMP and the goodwill it symbolizes.
`
`RESPONDENT’S REGISTRATION
`
`4.
`
`Based on information and belief, Respondent is a New York limited liability
`
`company located at 80 Bay Street Landing, #3H Staten Island, New York 10301.
`
`5.
`
`Respondent owns United States Supplemental Trademark Registration No.
`
`4,783,634 (“Respondent’s Registration”) for the mark DAT BOOTCAMP (“Respondent’s
`
`Mark”) as used on “education services, namely, providing live and on-line classes, seminars,
`
`workshops, and presentations in the field of test preparation for academic and achievement
`
`aptitude tests, academic course work, and standardized tests for collegiate and graduate levels of
`
`education.”
`
`6.
`
`The application that matured into Respondent’s Registration was filed for on May
`
`30, 2014 based on an alleged first use date of September 12, 2010.
`
`GROUNDS FOR CANCELLATION
`PRIORITY AND LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION
`
`Petitioner incorporates paragraphs 1-6 above.
`
`Petitioner’s use of Petitioner’s Mark in commerce pre-dated Respondent’s first use
`
`7.
`
`8.
`
`of Respondent’s Mark in commerce, as well as the filing date upon which Respondent filed its
`
`2
`
`

`

`application for Respondent’s Registration. Upon further information and belief, Petitioner’s Mark
`
`has acquired distinctiveness while Respondent’s Mark remains merely descriptive. Therefore,
`
`Petitioner has priority of use of its Mark over that of Respondent’s use of its Mark.
`
`9.
`
`Respondent’s Mark is confusingly and deceptively similar to Petitioner’s Mark.
`
`Respondent’s Mark is identical in sight, connotation, and commercial impression to Petitioner’s
`
`Mark.
`
`10.
`
`Respondent’s services are identical to or closely related to the services provided by
`
`Petitioner. Consumers are likely to believe that Respondent and its services are somehow
`
`sponsored by, affiliated with and/or related to Petitioner and its services.
`
`11.
`
`Respondent’s channels of trade and class of purchasers are identical to or very
`
`similar to those of Petitioner.
`
`12.
`
`Due to the similarity between Petitioner’s Mark and Respondent’s Mark, as well as
`
`their respective services, not to mention the similarity of the channels of trade and classes of
`
`purchasers, the continued registration of Respondent’s Mark will cause great damage and injury
`
`to Petitioner. Persons familiar with Petitioner’s Mark and services would likely confuse
`
`Respondent’s services with the services provided by Petitioner. Any defect, objection or fault
`
`found with Respondent’s services offered under its Mark may reflect upon and expose Petitioner
`
`to liability, and injure the reputation that Petitioner has established for its services.
`
`
`
`
`
`WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this petition be sustained, and U.S.
`
`Supplemental Trademark Registration No. 4,783,634 for the mark DAT BOOTCAMP be
`
`cancelled in its entirety.
