Points Of Interest
Summary
The opposition, which was directed solely at the Class 25 goods, was based on two registrations of the mark YSL (stylised and in a monogram format). The Class 25 goods were identical. The Hearing Officer therefore addressed himself to the comparison of the marks and the likelihood of confusion. A number of issues arose in the course of the assessment including a review of whether a claim to enhanced distinctiveness has to be specifically pleaded. In the result the Hearing Officer found no likelihood of confusion and the opposition failed.
