`
`
`PETITION FOR CANCELLATION
`
`EDGE Games, Inc., a California corporation having its principal place of business at 530
`
`South Lake Avenue, 171, Pasadena, CA 91101 (“Petitioner”), believes that is being and/or will
`
`be damaged by the continued registration of Registration No. 5,944,855 for SHADOW’S EDGE
`
`in Class 09 (referred to herein as “the Registration”), in the United States Patent and Trademark
`
`Office (“USPTO”) by Resonance House LLC. (“Registrant”), and hereby petitions to cancel
`
`same under Section 14 of the Trademark Act of 1946, 15 U.S.C. § 1064.
`
`As grounds for this Petitioner, Petitioner alleges the following:
`
`FACTUAL BACKGROUND
`
`Petitioner and the “EDGE” Family of Marks
`
`1. EDGE Games, Inc. (“EGI” also “Petitioner”) is a California corporation, having its
`
`principal place of business at 530 South Lake Avenue, 171, Pasadena, CA 91101, United States of
`
`America. EGI’s predecessor in rights was founded in 1981, is well known developer and
`
`publisher of interactive entertainment for personal computers, mobile phones and devices,
`
`handheld game players, and online game formats, and computer game hardware such as game
`
`computers and handheld gaming devices, and digital news magazines for games, as well as
`
`related goods and services.
`
`2. EGI has continuously owned U.S. trademark registrations for the mark EDGE and other
`
`EDGE formative marks at all times since or about 1992, and currently owns a number of EDGE
`
`formative U.S. Trademark Registrations: Registration No. 5,934,761 for EDGE GAMES in class
`
`09 for computer games and mobile phone games and other products and services; Reg. No.
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`5,987,060 for EDGE PC in Class 09; and Reg. No. 5,987,061 for EDGE GAMING PC in Class
`
`09.
`
`3. Over the past 38 years, Petitioner has used a wide range of EDGE formative marks, in
`
`each case acquiring goodwill from the use of such marks, and never abandoning the rights in any
`
`such mark with no intention of recommencing use. These formative marks have included some
`
`that have had registrations at one point and some that have always been part of Petitioner’s
`
`common law rights in the mark EDGE. Such marks include: CUTTING EDGE, LEADING
`
`EDGE, SOUL EDGE, MAGIC EDGE, PLANET’S EDGE, GAMER’s EDGE, EDGE 3D, and
`
`many more.
`
`4. Petitioner notes that all three of EGI’s U.S. EDGE registrations were filed prior to the
`
`date of claimed first use of Registrant’s Registered Mark and all of EGI’s EDGE formative
`
`marks had their first use in U.S. commerce substantially prior to any claimed first use by
`
`Registrant.
`
`5. In addition, EGI owns the following U.S. trademark applications for EDGE formative
`
`marks: Serial No. 86538581 for EDGE in Classes 09, 16 and 41 for computer and mobile games
`
`and related goods and services; Serial No. 90686518 for THE EDGE in Class 09 for computer
`
`and mobile games and related goods and services; and Serial No. 97064385 for EDGE in Class
`
`42 for the design of computer and mobile games and related services.
`
`6. Importantly, Petitioner notes that its application to register the mark EDGE for computer
`
`and mobile games Serial No. 86538581 in Classes 09, 16 and 41 was filed February 18, 2015,
`
`which is substantially earlier than the claimed first use date of Registrant’s Registration.
`
`7. Given Registrant’s mark SHADOW’S EDGE has a likelihood of confusion with
`
`Petitioner’s mark EDGE, clearly the USPTO should not have permitted Registrant’s mark to go
`
`
`
`3
`
`
`
`forward to publication. Instead, Registrant’s application should have been held in suspension
`
`pending the outcome of Petitioner’s 2015 application for the mark EDGE for mobile games.
`
`8. Along with owning U.S. registrations and applications for the mark EDGE and EDGE
`
`formative marks that substantially pre-date the filing date of Registrant’s Mark, EGI also has
`
`common law rights in the marks EDGE, THE EDGE, EDGE GAMES, and a family of EDGE
`
`formative marks for computer games arising from continuous use in United States commerce
`
`since or about June 1984. Additionally, EGI has maintained a web presence since 1995 for
`
`games at www.edgegames.com where consumers have been able to access downloadable
`
`content, game information, screenshots, and news and information about the EDGE brand of
`
`computer games and computer game hardware. EGI claims first use of its EDGE and EDGE
`
`formative marks in commerce of June 1984.
`
`9. Since or about 1992, EGI has endeavored at all times to monitor the U.S. trademarks
`
`register to check that no other entity has attempted to register the mark EDGE, or any other
`
`EDGE formative mark, in its name with the goal of maintaining a lack of dilution of the mark
`
`EDGE on the U.S. Register. Until about 2015, EGI was able to keep the U.S. Register reasonably
`
`clear of any rival EDGE marks for the same or similar goods and services (computer games).
`
`However, due to clerical errors, it has only just been drawn to EGI’s attention that some EDGE
`
`formative marks for games slipped through without EGI opposing their registration and without
`
`the USPTO appropriately citing our earlier filed applications and registrations against such
`
`newer “EDGE” mark applications for games. The subject Registration is one of those marks that
`
`EGI overlooked in error that clearly it should have filed a timely opposition to the registration of.
`
`10. It has recently come to EGI’s attention that at least one other infringing user of
`
`Petitioner’s mark EDGE is refusing to cease use, citing Registrant’s mark as the reason for not
`
`
`
`4
`
`
`
`respecting EGI’s 38-year rights in the mark EDGE and EDGE formative marks for games. EGI
`
`is thus being harmed and almost certainly will be further harmed should Registrant’s mark
`
`continue to exist on the Register causing unlawful dilution of EGI’s core house mark EDGE.
`
`Resonance House and the Subject Registration
`
`11. On information and belief, Community Initiatives is a company located in Oakland,
`
`California at 1000 Broadway, Suite 480, Oakland, CA 94607. The original applicant and original
`
`registrant of the mark was Resonance House LLC, is a company located in Mountain View,
`
`California at 2440 W. El Camino Real Suite 300 Mountain View CA 94040. According to the
`
`Trademark database, an assignment was recorded between the two entities on September 9,
`
`2020.
`
`12. There appears to be no evidence of Community Initiatives using the mark, and the seller
`
`of the game titled ‘Shadow’s Edge” would appear to still be “ Resonance House LLC” as at 12
`
`November 2022, not Community Initiatives (See Exhibit B).
`
`13. This petition regards the cancellation of Class 09 of the subject registration. The
`
`Registration SHADOW’S EDGE is in the following subject Class for the following goods and
`
`services: IC 009. Downloadable mobile applications, namely, computer game software and
`
`social networking software which provide gaming and self-help for young people with physical
`
`or mental health issues; Motion picture films about young people with physical and mental
`
`health issues; Motion picture films featuring children's entertainment
`
`14. Registrant claims first use in commerce of July 23, 2017, decades after Petitioner’s first
`
`use of the mark EDGE.
`
`
`
`5
`
`
`
`15. On information and belief, the subject Registration No. 5,944,855 is no longer in use for
`
`the goods and services listed in Class 09 and has been abandoned within the meaning of Section
`
`45 of the Lanham Act as a result of non-use and intent not to resume use.
`
`16. On information and belief, the subject Registration No. 5,944,855 in Class 09 was
`
`fraudulently obtained.
`
`17. On information and belief, the subject Registration No. 5,944,855 was not being use in
`
`U.S. commerce as at the date of filing in all of the class of goods applied for that is subject of
`
`this cancellation (Class 09), or for all goods and services listed in the application in Class 09, or
`
`not used for all goods and services listed in Class 09 at the time the Statement of Use was filed.
`
`18.
`
`On information and belief, Registrant has acquired no appreciable goodwill in
`
`relation to its use of the Registered Mark in Class 09, and any such use has been likely to cause
`
`confusion in the minds of U.S. consumers as to the true source of goods and services due to the
`
`fact of the well-known nature of Petitioner’s EDGE mark and the 38 years of goodwill
`
`associated therewith in U.S. nationwide commerce.
`
`19.
`
`On information and belief, Registrant does not use the name “SHADOW’s Edge”
`
`as a genuine trademark in Class 09, indicating claim of rights with the “TM’ indicator etc.
`
`20.
`
`According to the specimen of use supplied to the USPTO by Registrant of its
`
`“SHADOW’s Edge” the word EDGE is displayed in capital letters almost identically to the way
`
`that EGI has been using the mark EDGE for many decades:
`
`Registrant’s claimed use:
`
`
`
`6
`
`
`
`Examples of Petitioner’s use:
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Count I: Petitioner’s Prior Rights and Likelihood of Confusion
`
`21.
`
`Petitioner hereby incorporates by reference the allegations in Paragraphs 1
`
`through 20 hereof as if fully set forth herein.
`
`22.
`
`Petitioner uses its house mark EDGE both on its own as EDGE (and almost
`
`always as capital letters) and has a long history of using the core mark EDGE with other
`
`words to form a “family of EDGE marks.” For instance, THE EDGE, EDGE GAMES,
`
`CUTTING EDGE, OVER THE EDGE, GET THE EDGE, MAGIC EDGE, PLANET’S
`
`
`
`7
`
`
`
`EDGE and so on, to promote and market its famous EDGE brand computer software and
`
`hardware, and related goods and services.
`
`23. Registrant’s mark is likely to be confused with Registrant’s mark EDGE and likely to be
`
`assumed by U.S. consumers to be an EDGE formative mark whose origins are with Petitioner,
`
`not Registrant.
`
`24. The goods listed in the Registration and Petitioner’s ‘downloadable mobile applications,
`
`namely, computer game software’ and ‘computer games and mobile games’ are legally identical.
`
`Petitioner and Registrant sell their games through essentially identical channels of trade in U.S.
`
`commerce.
`
`25. Accordingly, Registrant’s mark in the Registration is likely to cause confusion or
`
`mistake, or to deceive the public into believing that Registrant’s goods emanate from or are
`
`somehow affiliated or associated with, connected to or sponsored by Petitioner. The mark
`
`SHADOW’S EDGE should be deemed barred from registration and should be cancelled because
`
`it consists of or comprises a mark which so resembles Petitioner’s previously used (and earlier
`
`registered) marks EDGE and EDGE GAMES as to be likely, when used in connection with the
`
`goods in the Registration, to cause confusion, mistake, or deception with the meaning of 15
`
`U.S.C. § 1064.
`
`26. If Registrant is permitted to continue owning a valid registration for the SHADOW’S
`
`EDGE mark, there will be likelihood of confusion as to the source of Registrant’s goods,
`
`resulting in continued damage and injury to Petitioner.
`
`27. Petitioner will continue to be damaged by Registrant’s ongoing registration of the
`
`SHADOW’S EDGE mark because such registration supports and assists Registrant in the
`
`confusing and misleading use of SHADOW’S EDGE and will give color of rights to Registrant
`
`
`
`8
`
`
`
`in violation of Petitioner’s prior and superior rights in its EDGE and EDGE GAMES marks. The
`
`continued validity of Registrant’s Registration interferes with the Petitioner’s current business.
`
`Petitioner therefore has a real interest in seeking cancellation of the Registration and standing to
`
`bring this action.
`
`Count II: Registrant’s Fraud in its Procurement of Registration
`
`28. Petitioner hereby incorporates by reference the allegations in Paragraphs 1 through 27
`
`hereof as if fully set forth herein.
`
`29. In Registrant’s application that is filed on February 23, 2018 that resulted in the
`
`Registration, a true and correct copy of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A and had used the
`
`mark SHADOW’S EDGE since July 23, 2017, the subject mark SHADOW’S EDGE in U.S.
`
`commerce in connection with Downloadable mobile applications, namely, computer game
`
`software and social networking software which provide gaming and self-help for young people
`
`with physical or mental health issues; Motion picture films about young people with physical and
`
`mental health issues; Motion picture films featuring children's entertainment (the
`
`“Representation”).
`
`30. On information and belief, the Representation was false at the time Registrant made it,
`
`intentionally misleading the USPTO as to the true facts of Registrant’s use of the mark, if any, at
`
`the time of filing the original application. Reviewing the claimed specimens of use that
`
`accompanied the application, it is clear that the mark was not being used for all the goods and
`
`services in Class 09 Registrant falsely claimed they were being used for, if they were being used
`
`for any.
`
`31. Based on the foregoing, Registrant obtained the Registration fraudulently, which is
`
`grounds for cancellation of the Registration in its entirety.
`
`
`
`9
`
`
`
`Count III: No Use of Mark in Commerce Before Application for Registration was Filed
`
`32.
`
`Petitioner hereby incorporates by reference the allegations in Paragraphs 1
`
`through 31 hereof as if fully set forth herein.
`
`33.
`
`On information and belief, and contrary to the claim made by Registrant at the
`
`time of filing its application to register the mark SHADOW’S EDGE that result in the
`
`Registration, Registrant did not use in interstate commerce the SHADOW’S EDGE mark in
`
`connection with all the goods and services listed in such application prior to filing such
`
`application.
`
`34.
`
`As a further basis for cancellation, because Registrant was not using the
`
`SHADOW’S EDGE mark in connection with any of the goods identified in the Registration in
`
`Class 09 as of December 24, 2019, the application that resulted in the Registration was void ab
`
`initio.
`
`35. Petitioner will be damaged by continued existence of the Registration, which would
`
`improperly give color of rights to Registrant and entitle Registrant to presumptions and other
`
`benefits under the Lanham Act that are not warranted.
`
`Count IV: Registration No. 5,944,855 Has Been Abandoned
`
`
`
`36. Petitioner hereby incorporates by reference the allegations in Paragraphs 1 through 35
`
`hereof as if fully set forth herein.
`
`37. Class 09 of Registration No. 5,944,855 may be cancelled under Section 14 of the
`
`Trademark Act of 1946, 15 U.S.C. § 1064(3), due to abandonment.
`
`38. On information and belief, Registrant has discontinued use of the mark associated with
`
`the Subject Registration with the intent not to resume such use.
`
`
`
`10
`
`
`
`39. On information and belief, Registrant has never used or intended to use the mark
`
`identified in the Subject Registration in connection with all of the goods and services described
`
`in the Registration in Class 09, Registrant has no independent use that could support registration
`
`of the mark in connection with those goods and services. Petitioner alleges that the Subject
`
`Registration has been abandoned in regard to Class 09 and should be cancelled for this class.
`
`40. Petitioner is and will continue to be harmed by the continued registration of the mark in
`
`the Registration.
`
`Prayer for Relief
`
`
`
`WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays that this cancellation petition be sustained, and that the
`
`Registration be cancelled in regard to Class 09. The filing fee of $600 for the Petition to Cancel
`
`is being submitted electronically with this Petition.
