`
`

`
`
`Respondent.
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Admar International, Inc., Petitioner, a corporation organized and existing under the laws
`
`of Delaware with a principal place of business at 1200 University Avenue, Monroe, LA 71203,
`
`believes that it has been and will continue to be damaged by U.S. Trademark Registration No.
`
`5,672,782 for the mark NEWBBY, and hereby petitions for cancellation of the NEWBBY
`
`registration pursuant to Section 14(1) of the Lanham Trademark Act of 1946 ("Lanham Act"), 15
`
`U.S.C. § 1064(1).
`
`As grounds for cancellation, Petitioner alleges as follows:
`
`1. Petitioner is in the business of owning and licensing intellectual property.
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`2. Petitioner is the owner of sixteen U.S. Trademark registrations and applications for the word
`
`mark NUBY in the various international classes, including international class 25, and for the
`
`various goods and services as set out in the chart attached as Exhibit A.
`
`3. Petitioner has licensed the NUBY word mark in interstate commerce in the United States to
`
`Luv n’ care, Ltd., continuously since January 1, 1998, for use in connection with the sale and
`
`distribution of products for infants, children and mothers including clothing and other
`
`products falling within international class 25. All good will associated with the use of the
`
`NUBY mark accrues to the benefit of Petitioner.
`
`4. As a result of the widespread, continuous, and exclusive use of the NUBY mark, on products
`
`for infants, children and mothers including clothing and other products falling within
`
`international class 25, to identify Petitioner as their ultimate source, Petitioner owns valid
`
`and subsisting federal statutory and common law rights to the NUBY mark in international
`
`class 25.
`
`5. Petitioner’s NUBY mark is distinctive to both the consuming public and Petitioner’s trade.
`
`6. Petitioner and Petitioner’s licensee have expended substantial time, money and resources
`
`marketing and promoting products for infants, children and mothers including clothing and
`
`other products falling within international class 25 sold under the NUBY mark throughout
`
`the United States including the use of point of purchase materials, displays and social media.
`
`7. The products for infants, children and mothers, including clothing and other products falling
`
`within international class 25, Petitioner has licensed under the NUBY mark are of high
`
`quality encompassing attractive and unique product designs and are constructed of high
`
`quality materials using state of the art manufacturing. Petitioner has at all times exercised
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`control over the quality of the products licensed for use under the NUBY mark to insure that
`
`they are of the highest quality.
`
`8. Upon information and belief, Respondent, Yao Xiao, an individual with an address at No.
`
`498 Shaoshan South Road, Tianxin Dist Changsha, Hunan, China 410000, is the current
`
`listed owner of Registration No. 5,672,782 for the mark NEWBBY in connection with

`shirts; Swimwear; Underpants; Vests; Yoga pants, all in International Class 25. That
`
`trademark registration, based on an application filed on February 5, 2018, was issued on
`
`February 12, 2019.
`
`9. Petitioner’s NUBY mark has priority over Respondent’s mark because Petitioner’s first-use
`
`date of the NUBY mark predates the filing, first use and first use in commerce dates of
`
`Respondent’s application for Registration No. 5,672,782 or any other date on which the
`
`Respondent may rely for purposes of priority.
`
`10. Respondent’s mark when spoken or used verbally is so like Petitioner’s NUBY mark as to
`
`be likely to cause confusion, mistake, or deceive consumers into believing that Respondent’s
`
`goods and services originate from, are sponsored or endorsed by or are somehow associated
`
`with Petitioner.
`
`11. The goods and services covered by Respondent’s Trademark Registration No. 5,672,782 are
`
`used in connection with products identical to the products for mothers including clothing,
`
`and other products falling within international class 25, Petitioner offers under its NUBY
`
`mark.
`
`
`
`3
`
`
`
`12. Respondent’s Trademark Registration No. 5,672,782 is unrestricted as to consumers or trade
`
`channels. As such, it is presumed that Respondents’ goods and services identified in the
`
`challenged registration are sold to ordinary consumers of products for mothers including
`
`clothing and other products falling within international class 25 using Petitioner’s mark
`
`including consumers of products for mothers including clothing and other products falling
`
`within international class 25 and travel in all ordinary trade channels through which
`
`Petitioner’s licensee sells its clothing and other products falling within international class 25
`
`under the NUBY mark.
`
`GROUND FOR CANCELLATION –
`PRIORITY AND LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION
`
`
`13. Respondent’s registration should be cancelled because it consists of a mark which is verbally
`
`identical to Petitioner’s previously used NUBY mark as to be likely, when used in connection
`
`with Respondent’s goods and services, to cause confusion, mistake, or deception, and to
`
`cause damage to Petitioner thereby.
`
`WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that its cancellation be sustained, and the
`
`Respondent’s Trademark Registration No. 5,672,782 be cancelled.
`
`Respectfully submitted this 11th day of April 2023,
