`
`
`PETITION FOR CANCELLATION
`
`1. Pastrana & Garcia, a company with a business address of 305 N. Heatherwilde Blvd., Suite
`
`240, Pflugerville, Texas 78660 (“Petitioner”) is the owner of all rights in and to the mark
`
`“LA MERA MERA ABOGADA” (the “Petitioner’s Mark”).
`
`2. Petitioner’s Mark has been used in commerce since at least June 29, 2021.
`
`3. Petitioner’s Mark has been used in commerce for the following goods and services:
`
`“Attorney services; Attorney services, namely, representation of clients in personal injury
`
`cases, car accidents, 18-wheeler accidents, construction accidents, drunk driving accidents,
`
`and workplace accidents.”
`
`4. Petitioner has had a pending application for registration of Petitioner’s Mark (US Serial
`
`No. 98421596) since February 26, 2024.
`
`5. Vanessa Alonso is an individual with an address of 806 S Zarzamora St., San Antonio,
`
`Texas 78207 (“Registrant”).
`
`6. Registrant alleges that she is the owner of the mark “LA MERA MERA” (“Registrant’s
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Mark”), which was registered by her as US Registration No. 7350828 on April 9, 2024.
`
`7. Registrant alleges that she has used Registrant’s Mark for “legal services in the field of
`
`immigration, personal injury, and criminal defense” since at least March 4. 2022.
`
`8. Petitioner’s use of Petitioner’s Mark has priority over Registrant’s use of Registrant’s Mark
`
`given the first use dates in commerce.
`
`9. There is a likelihood of confusion between Petitioner’s use of Petitioner’s Mark and
`
`Registrant’s use of Registrant’s Mark.
`
`10. Registrant’s Mark was cited against Petitioner’s Mark during prosecution of Petitioner’s
`
`application for registration.
`
`11. Petitioner therefore seeks cancellation of Registrant’s US registration for Registrant’s Mark
`
`so that Petitioner’s application for Petitioner’s Mark can be registered.

`
`
`Respectfully submitted,
