`
`
`
`PETITION FOR CANCELLATION
`
`Petitioner, Mercury One, Inc., a nonprofit charitable organization that engages in
`
`1.
`
`humanitarian aid campaigns, disaster relief efforts, and education initiatives, is incorporated in
`
`Delaware with a principal place of business in Irving, Texas.
`
`2.
`
`Petitioner is being or will be damaged by continued registration of the HONEST
`
`HISTORY word marks, U.S. Reg. Nos. 6008523, 6504087, and 6504088 (“Honest History
`
`Registrations”), owned by Respondent Honest History Co. (“Respondent”). Exhibits 1-3, Honest
`
`History Registrations.
`
`3.
`
`Accordingly, the Petitioner hereby petitions to cancel the Honest History Registrations.
`
`As grounds for the Petition for Cancellation, Mercury One, Inc. alleges as follows:
`
`I. Mercury One’s Standing to Petition to Cancel
`
`
`4.
`
`Under Trademark Act Section 14, 15 U.S.C. § 1064, “any person who believes that he is
`
`or will be damaged … by the registration of a mark on the principal register” may petition to cancel
`
`that registration. Petitioner seeks to cancel Respondent’s Honest History Registrations, and this
`
`cancellation request falls within the zone of interests protected by the Trademark Act.
`
`
`
`A. Petitioner Mercury One, Inc.
`
`Mercury One, Inc. (“Mercury One” or “Petitioner”) is a nonprofit charitable organization
`
`5.
`
`founded in 2011, and it conducts American history education and humanitarian aid initiative
`
`programs. As an example of one recent humanitarian aid initiative, Mercury One coordinated
`
`evacuation efforts of over 10,000 at-risk individuals from Afghanistan in the fall of 2021. Exhibit
`
`4, Decl. of Ms. Grishman, ¶2-4, p. 1-2.
`
`6.
`
`As another example of one of its initiatives, Mercury One formed an American Journey
`
`Experience (or AJE) educational initiative, which has collected over 160,000 historic documents
`
`and artifacts. Mercury One’s AJE initiative currently holds the largest privately-held collection
`
`of American history primary source documents and artifacts, such as: (1) a lock of George
`
`Washington’s hair (called Golden Rings); (2) 48 Star United States Flag flown on Ship at landing
`
`at D-Day, (3) Historic Holy Bible (valued at $150,000 to $165,000); (4) Force printing of
`
`Declaration of Independence, and (5) Silk Mourning Dress Worn By Mary Todd Lincoln. Exhibit
`
`4, Decl. of Ms. Grishman, ¶5- 15, 18, p. 2-6.
`
`7.
`
`Apart from operating a museum of such American history artifacts, Mercury One is making
`
`over 20,000 images of historical artifacts and documents electronically available by and through
`
`an on-line archive database. The archiving, uploading and photographing of these artifacts and
`
`documents began in early 2017 as part of this business plan to provide electronic access to these
`
`items, and continues to the present day. Exhibit 4, Decl. of Ms. Grishman, ¶5- 15, 18, p. 2-6.
`
`8.
`
`The words “honest” and “history” are well-known generic or descriptive terms defined in
`
`the dictionary, as shown below.
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`
`
`Exhibit 5, Dictionary Definitions, www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ (entries “honest” and
`
`“history”).
`
`9.
`
`When initially selecting a name (and domain name) for its archive website related to its
`
`American history artifact collection in 2017, Mercury One conducted survey analysis that
`
`indicated an archive name (and domain name) using the words “honest” and “history” was viewed
`
`favorably by survey respondents because those words describe the content or subject matter shown
`
`in primary source artifacts, which are an honest, accurate, and truthful record of American history.
`
`Exhibit 4, Decl. of Ms. Grishman, ¶7-12, p. 2-4.
`
`10. Without prior knowledge of Respondent’s registrations, Mercury One chose the domain
`
`name www.honesthistory.com and acquired the domain name rights to same on May 29, 2019 for
`
`use with its on-line archive database. Exhibit 4, Decl. of Ms. Grishman, ¶14-16, p. 4-5.
`
`11.
`
`Petitioner’s acquisition of the domain name occurred almost one year before the
`
`registration date of Respondent’s first Honest History word mark, and over two years before the
`
`registration date of the Respondent’s latter two Honest History word marks. Exhibit 4, Decl. of
`
`Ms. Grishman, ¶14-16, p. 4-5.
`
`B. Respondent Has Claimed, and Continues to Claim, That Petitioner Infringes the
`Honest History Registrations From Use of www.honesthistory.com Domain
`Name
`
`Two and one-half years after Petitioner acquired the www.honesthistory.com domain
`
`12.
`
`name, Respondent filed a Complaint with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center on
`
`September 15, 2021 claiming superior rights to the Petitioner’s domain name. Exhibit 6, WIPO
`
`Domain Name Decision: D2021-3028, https://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/search/text.jsp?
`
`case=D2021-3028.
`
`13.
`
`In Respondent’s WIPO Complaint, Respondent asserted superior ownership rights to
`
`Petitioner’s domain name by virtue of its Honest History Registrations; and, Respondent
`
`requested a transfer of ownership to Petitioner’s domain name, www.honesthistory.com, in the
`
`WIPO Complaint. Id.
`
`14.
`
`The WIPO Arbitration panel rejected Respondent’s UDRP domain name claim and
`
`denied all the Respondent’s requests for relief. Id.
`
`15.
`
`After their failed attempt to enforce trademark rights through the WIPO Arbitration
`
`filing, Respondent continued to demand that Petitioner take action with respect to its use of the
`
`
`
`3
`
`
`
`domain name (www.honesthistory.com) and its use of words “honest” and “history” with
`
`Petitioner’s website archive.
`
`16.
`
`The Respondent’s demands for Petitioner to take action were supported by the Honest
`
`History Registrations, and the use of the Honest History Registrations to support these demands
`
`has, and will continue to, impact Petitioner’s ability to use the words “honest” and “history” in a
`
`merely descriptive, generic and/or informational manner.
`
`17.
`
`Respondent’s assertions of its Honest History Registrations in the WIPO domain name
`
`arbitration filing and its subsequent demands for Petitioner to take action has caused damage to
`
`the Petitioner. Based on Respondent’s past filings and demands, Petitioner has a legitimate and
`
`real apprehension that Petitioner has been, and will continued to be, damaged by Respondent’s
`
`assertion of the Honest History Registrations.
`
`18.
`
`Petitioner has a legitimate belief and real apprehension that Respondent intends to file
`
`another legal action alleging infringement of the Honest History Registrations or make other
`
`legal assertions that will harm and damage Petitioner.
`
`a. Petitioner believes that Respondent’s anticipated legal action (based the Honest
`
`History Registrations) would prevent Petitioner from using its archive name and/or
`
`domain name, which were lawfully obtained and secured by Petitioner,
`
`b. Petitioner believes that Respondent’s anticipated legal action (based the Honest
`
`History Registrations) would prevent Petitioner from using words “honest” and
`
`“history” in a descriptive, generic or informational manner as it relates to Petitioner’s
`
`database of historical records, documents, and artifacts.
`
`19.
`
`The existence, and continued active registration, of Respondent’s Honest History
`
`Registrations has damaged, and will continue to harm and damage Petitioner’s personal interests.
`
`20.
`
`Petitioner is not a “mere intermeddler” in this cancellation proceeding, and Petitioner has
`
`standing to request cancellation of the Honest History Registrations because it has a “direct and
`
`personal stake” in the outcome of this cancellation.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`4
`
`
`
`C. Respondent Has Indicated that It Objects to Petitioner’s Right to Protect
`Logo Mark In Light of Its Honest History Registrations
`
`To effectively market its AJE initiative, Petitioner Mercury One, Inc. created a logo mark
`
`21.
`
`that is used with its on-line archival database of American history artifacts, as shown herein:
`
`
`
`
`
`22.
`
`Petitioner Mercury One filed U.S. Trademark Application Serial No. 97/183,068 to
`
`protect this logo mark as used with Class 41 educational services in the field of American
`
`History, such as providing on-line access to materials and images of artifacts relating to
`
`American History. Exhibit 7, Appl. No. 97/183,068 PTO Status Page.
`
`23.
`
`The Patent & Trademark Office, upon examination of Petitioner’s logo mark application,
`
`indicated that there are no conflicting marks that would bar registration under the Trademark Act
`
`Section 2(d). Exhibit 8, Office Action, Sept. 29, 2022, p. 4, Serial No. 98/183,068.
`
`24. While the Trademark Attorney found that there were no conflicting marks that would bar
`
`registration of Petitioner’s logo mark, the Trademark Attorney also simultaneously
`
`acknowledged the existence of each of Respondent’s Honest History Registrations by attaching
`
`records of the Honest History Registrations to the Office Action. Exhibit 8, Office Action, Sept.
`
`29, 2022, Serial No. 98/183,068.
`
`25.
`
`The Respondent has communicated its objection to Petitioner’s right to register its
`
`“Honest History” logo mark set forth in U.S. Trademark Application Serial No. 97/183,068, and
`
`Respondent claims the Petitioner’s logo mark interferes with its rights to the Honest History
`
`Registrations.
`
`26.
`
`Based on Respondent’s stated objections, Petitioner believes that Respondent will likely
`
`file an Opposition filing against the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office as to U.S. Trademark
`
`Application Serial No. 97/183,068 based on their current ownership of the Honest History
`
`Registrations.
`
`27.
`
`Respondent’s ownership of the Honest History Registrations have damaged, and will
`
`continue to damage, Petitioner by interfering with Petitioner’s ability to protect its logo mark.
`
`
`
`5
`
`
`
`28.
`
`Respondent’s ownership of the Honest History Registrations have harmed, and will
`
`continue to damage, Petitioner by preventing it from freely using the “honest” and “history” in a
`
`descriptive, generic or informational manner.
`
`29.
`
`For these reasons, the existence, and continued existence, of the Respondent’s Honest
`
`History Registrations have, and will continue, to damage the Petitioner’s personal interests.
`
`Petitioner has standing to bring this cancellation proceeding because Petitioner has a “direct and
`
`personal stake” in the outcome of this Cancellation Proceeding; and, Petitioner is not a “mere
`
`intermeddler” in this proceeding.
`
`II. Respondent’s Honest History Registrations for
` Educational Materials and Programs
`
`
`30.
`
`Respondent’s Registration No. 6,504,088 (Exhibit 3, ‘088 Registration) for the word
`
`mark “Honest History” was granted on September 28, 2021 and covers the following goods and
`
`services in Class 16:
`
`Educational publications, namely, printed workbooks, textbooks,
`activity books, teacher guides, manuals, posters, and educational
`booklets in the fields of history and education for children
`
`
`
`a. This ‘088 registration has not yet become incontestable. And, during the application
`
`examination process, the Registrant disclaimed the exclusive rights to the word “history” and
`
`Respondent failed to prove secondary meaning or distinctiveness for their mark prior to
`
`obtaining a registration.
`
`31.
`
`Respondent’s Registration No. 6,504,087 (Exhibit 2, ‘087 Registration) for the word
`
`mark “Honest History” was granted on September 28, 2021 and covers the following goods and
`
`services in Class 41:
`
`Educational services, namely, providing non-downloadable videos,
`courses of instruction, blogs, and audio recordings, in the fields of
`history and education for children; Providing courses of instruction
`in the field of history and education for children; Educational
`services, namely, developing curriculum for educators;
`Educational services, namely, developing curriculum for others in
`the field of history; Educational services, namely, developing
`curriculum for teachers
`
`a. This ‘087 registration has not yet become incontestable. And, during the application
`
`examination process, the Registrant disclaimed the exclusive rights to the word “history” and
`
`
`
`6
`
`
`
`Respondent failed to prove secondary meaning or distinctiveness for their mark prior to
`
`obtaining a registration.
`
`32.
`
`Respondent’s Registration No. 6,008,523 (Exhibit 1, ‘523 Registration) for the word
`
`mark “Honest History” was granted on March 10, 2020 and covers the following goods and
`
`services in Class 16:
`
`Educational magazines for children in the field of history.
`
`a. This ‘523 registration has not yet become incontestable. And, during the application
`
`examination process, the Registrant disclaimed the exclusive rights to the word “history” and
`
`Respondent failed to prove secondary meaning or distinctiveness for their mark prior to
`
`obtaining a registration.
`
`A. Respondent Disclaimed the Word “History” as a Generic Descriptor
`
`33. When the ‘523 Mark was being examined, the Trademark Office found the following in
`
`the Office Action dated August 14, 2018, p. 4 (Exhibit 9, Aug. 14, 2018 Office Action, p. 4):
`
` Applicant must disclaim the wording “HISTORY” because it merely describes
`a subject matter of applicant’s goods, and thus is an unregistrable component of
`the mark. See 15 U.S.C. §§1052(e)(1), 1056(a); DuoProSS Meditech Corp. v.
`Inviro Med. Devices, Ltd., 695 F.3d 1247, 1251, 103 USPQ2d 1753, 1755 (Fed.
`Cir. 2012) (quoting In re Oppedahl & Larson LLP, 373 F.3d 1171, 1173, 71
`USPQ2d 1370, 1371 (Fed. Cir. 2004)); TMEP §§1213, 1213.03(a).
` “History” is defined as “the study of past events, particularly in human affairs”
`and applicant’s magazines feature content in the field history.
`https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/us/history Therefore, the wording
`merely describes the goods and must be disclaimed.
` An applicant may not claim exclusive rights to terms that others may need to
`use to describe their goods and/or services in the marketplace. See Dena Corp. v.
`Belvedere Int’l, Inc., 950 F.2d 1555, 1560, 21 USPQ2d 1047, 1051 (Fed. Cir.
`1991); In re Aug. Storck KG, 218 USPQ 823, 825 (TTAB 1983).
`
`
`34.
`
`In response to the above Office Action, Respondent disclaimed any ownership rights to
`
`the word “HISTORY” because Respondent admitted and acknowledged that it cannot claim
`
`exclusive rights to terms that others may need to use to describe their goods and/or services in
`
`the marketplace. Exhibit 10, Feb. 13, 2019, Response to Office Action, p. 1 and 3. Under the
`
`same reasoning, the Respondent made this same disclaimer of the word “HISTORY” in all three
`
`of the Honest History Registrations.
`
`
`
`7
`
`
`
`35.
`
`Despite Respondent’s disclaimer of proprietary rights to the word “history” in the Honest
`
`History Registrations, Respondent has asserted proprietary rights to the term “history” in its
`
`filings and communications against the Petitioner. If the Honest History Registrations are not
`
`cancelled, Respondent will continue to assert exclusive rights over the use of the term “history”
`
`as used in a descriptive, generic and/or informational manner.
`
`B. Respondent Admits to PTO That Primary Commercial Impression of Words
`“Honest History” Relates to Truthful Educational Content, Not as a Source
`Identifier
`
`36.
`
`Respondent’s statements to the PTO admit and concede that their mark, Honest History,
`
`creates an impression about truthful content in a merely descriptive, generic and/or informational
`
`manner, as opposed to being a source identifier in a trademark sense.
`
`37.
`
`Applicant (Respondent) responded to a citation of a conflicting cited mark in the
`
`Response to Office Action dated February 13, 2019 by stating as follows:
`
`
`Exhibit 10, Feb. 13, 2019 Response to Office Action, p. 4.
`
`
`
`38.
`
`By this statement to the PTO, Applicant (Respondent) indicated that their mark “honest
`
`history” creates the impression of a warranty of delivering “truthful history education” content. Id.
`
`39.
`
`According to the Applicant (Respondent), its use of “honest history” is directly associated
`
`with the guarantee of truthful educational content, as opposed to being a source identifier in a
`
`trademark sense.
`
`40.
`
`Applicant (Respondent) was not addressing a merely descriptiveness refusal to register and
`
`Respondent did not supply any evidence of consumer secondary meaning or association of the
`
`words “honest history” with reference to a source identifier for Applicant (Respondent).
`
`41.
`
`Respondent’s statements are an admission by the Respondent that the words “honest
`
`history” are used in a merely descriptive, generic and/or informational manner, and not as a
`
`reference to the source of a particular goods/service (or a particular publication) in a trademark
`
`sense. Id.
`
`
`
`8
`
`
`
`42.
`
`After making these arguments and representations to the PTO, the Applicant (Respondent)
`
`should not now be permitted to contend that its mark “honest history” is not merely descriptive,
`
`generic and/or informational regarding truthful educational content.
`
`C. Respondent Chose The “Honest History” Name To Describe Truthful Content, Not
`As A Source Identifier
`
`43.
`
`As shown in Respondent’s website (lower left hand shaded area in Exhibit 11
`
`(Complainant’s Webpage, shown in Annex 21 to UDRP Complaint), the Respondent selected the
`
`mark “Honest History” to reference content, not as an identifier of the source of a particular
`
`goods/service (or a particular publication) in a trademark sense.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`See Exhibit 11-1, Complainant’s Webpage, Annex 21 Respondent’s UDRP Complaint.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`44.
`
`Respondent provided this captured website page as Exhibit 11 (Appendix 21 to its UDRP
`
`Complaint), which indicated Respondent choose the name “honest history” to describe “well-
`
`researched stories from the past” (because “[t]he stories we choose for our magazine aren’t just
`
`fun and filled with adventure – they’re also 100% true.”). Id.
`
`
`
`9
`
`
`
`45.
`
`Respondent’s website statement (Exhibit 11) admitted that they adopted the words
`
`“honest history” for its mark to describe 100% true content in a merely descriptive, generic
`
`and/or informational manner -- not as the identifier of the source of a particular goods/service (or
`
`a particular publication) in a trademark sense.
`
