    Applicant for a Community trade mark: Karen Goncharov.

    Community trade mark concerned: The word mark DSBW for services in Classes 39, 41, 43 and 44 (Application No 2 852 143).

    Proprietor of the mark or sign cited in the opposition proceedings: DSB

    Mark or sign cited in opposition: The word mark DSB (Community trade mark No 2 292 290) for services in Classes 35-37, 39, 41 and 42, whereas the opposition was directed against registration in Classes 39, 41 and 43.

    Decision of the Opposition Division: Rejection of Opposition.

    Decision of the Board of Appeal: Annulment of the contested decision and grant of the appeal.

    Pleas in law: The Board of Appeal wrongly finds that the registration of the mark DSBW is precluded by Article 8(1) (b) of Regulation 40/94; (1) there is no likelihood of confusion between the opposing marks.
