Pleas in law and main arguments
Applicant for the Community trade mark: Master Beverage Industries Pte Ltd
Community trade mark concerned: The figurative mark ‘Golden Eagle Deluxe’ for goods in class 30 — application No 3 156 924
Proprietor of the mark or sign cited in the opposition proceedings: The applicant
Mark or sign cited: The Community, international and national figurative marks and word marks ‘Red Cup’, ‘Gold Blend’ and representations of a cup for, inter alia, coffee
Decision of the Opposition Division: Rejection of the opposition in its entirety
Decision of the Board of Appeal: Dismissal of the appeal
Pleas in law: Violation of Article 8(1)(b) and 8(5) of Council Regulation No 40/94, as the conflicting trade marks have a high degree of visual similarity because of an identical arrangement of nine elements present in both the trade mark applied for and in most of the earlier marks, which are inherently distinctive.
