`
`O AVOID ABANDONMENT, THE OFFICE MUST RECEIVE A PROPER RESPONSE TO THIS OFFICE ACTION WITHIN 6 MONTHS
`OF THE ISSUE/MAILING DATE.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`SSUE/MAILING DATE: 4/20/2010
`
`The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney.(cid:160) Applicant must respond timely and completely to
`the issues below.(cid:160) 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §§2.62(a), 2.65(a); TMEP §§711, 718.03.
`
`SECTION 2(d) REFUSAL – LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION – Class 35 Only
`
`Registration of the applied-for mark is refused because of a likelihood of confusion with the mark in U.S. Registration No. 3710945.(cid:160) Trademark
`Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); see TMEP §§1207.01 et seq.(cid:160) See the enclosed registration.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`rademark Act Section 2(d) bars registration of an applied-for mark that so resembles a registered mark that it is likely that a potential consumer
`would be confused or mistaken or deceived as to the source of the goods and/or services of the applicant and registrant.(cid:160) See 15 U.S.C. §1052(d).(cid:160)
`The court in In re E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., 476 F.2d 1357, 177 USPQ 563 (C.C.P.A. 1973) listed the principal factors to be considered
`when determining whether there is a likelihood of confusion under Section 2(d).(cid:160) See TMEP §1207.01.(cid:160) However, not all of the factors are
`necessarily relevant or of equal weight, and any one factor may be dominant in a given case, depending upon the evidence of record.(cid:160) In re
`
`(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`

`
`Majestic Distilling Co., 315 F.3d 1311, 1315, 65 USPQ2d 1201, 1204 (Fed. Cir. 2003); see In re E. I. du Pont, 476 F.2d at 1361-62, 177 USPQ at
`567.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`n this case, the following factors are the most relevant:(cid:160) similarity of the marks, similarity of the goods and/or services, and similarity of trade
`channels of the goods and/or services.(cid:160) See In re Opus One, Inc., 60 USPQ2d 1812 (TTAB 2001); In re Dakin’s Miniatures Inc. , 59 USPQ2d
`1593 (TTAB 1999); In re Azteca Rest. Enters., Inc., 50 USPQ2d 1209 (TTAB 1999); TMEP §§1207.01 et seq.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`aking into account the relevant du Pont factors, a likelihood of confusion determination in this case involves a two-part analysis.(cid:160) The marks
`are compared for similarities in their appearance, sound, connotation and commercial impression.(cid:160) TMEP §§1207.01, 1207.01(b).(cid:160) The goods
`and/or services are compared to determine whether they are similar or commercially related or travel in the same trade channels.(cid:160) See Herbko
`Int’l, Inc. v. Kappa Books, Inc. , 308 F.3d 1156, 1164-65, 64 USPQ2d 1375, 1380 (Fed. Cir. 2002); Han Beauty, Inc. v. Alberto-Culver Co., 236
`F.3d 1333, 1336, 57 USPQ2d 1557, 1559 (Fed. Cir. 2001); TMEP §§1207.01, 1207.01(a)(vi).
`
`(cid:160)R
`
`egarding the issue of likelihood of confusion, all circumstances surrounding the sale of the goods and/or services are considered.(cid:160) These
`circumstances include the marketing channels, the identity of the prospective purchasers, and the degree of similarity between the marks and
`between the goods and/or services.(cid:160) See Indus. Nucleonics Corp. v. Hinde, 475 F.2d 1197, 177 USPQ 386 (C.C.P.A. 1973); TMEP §1207.01.(cid:160) In
`comparing the marks, similarity in any one of the elements of sound, appearance or meaning may be sufficient to find a likelihood of confusion.(cid:160)
`In re White Swan Ltd., 8 USPQ2d 1534, 1535 (TTAB 1988); In re Lamson Oil Co., 6 USPQ2d 1041, 1043 (TTAB 1987); see TMEP
`§1207.01(b).(cid:160) In comparing the goods and/or services, it is necessary to show that they are related in some manner.(cid:160) See On-line Careline Inc. v.
`Am. Online Inc., 229 F.3d 1080, 1086, 56 USPQ2d 1471, 1475 (Fed. Cir. 2000); TMEP §1207.01(a)(vi).
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he applicant’s mark is JUNGLE in standard characters for “Advertising services; advertising via electronic media and specifically the
`Internet; rental of advertising space on electronic devices and web sites; design of websites for advertising purposes; organizing, promoting,
`
`and conducting events for the purposes of sales promotions of game commodities,” in addition to a variety of additional goods and services. (cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`The mark in the cited registration is JUNGLE PROMOTIONS in standard characters with “promotions” disclaimed for “Advertising and
`promotional services.”
`
`(cid:160)P
`
`lease note that this refusal only pertains to applicant’s services in Class 35.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he marks are confusingly similar because they are very similar in sound, appearance and meaning.(cid:160) The applicant’s mark is identical to the
`dominant portion of the registrant’s mark. (cid:160) The marks are compared in their entireties under a Trademark Act Section 2(d) analysis.(cid:160) See TMEP
`§1207.01(b).(cid:160) Nevertheless, one feature of a mark may be recognized as more significant in creating a commercial impression.(cid:160) Greater weight is
`given to that dominant feature in determining whether there is a likelihood of confusion.(cid:160) In re Nat’l Data Corp. , 753 F.2d 1056, 224 USPQ 749
`(Fed. Cir. 1985); Tektronix, Inc. v. Daktronics, Inc., 534 F.2d 915, 189 USPQ 693 (C.C.P.A. 1976); In re J.M. Originals Inc., 6 USPQ2d 1393
`(TTAB 1987); see TMEP §1207.01(b)(viii), (c)(ii).
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`lthough a disclaimed portion of a mark certainly cannot be ignored, and the marks must be compared in their entireties, one feature of a mark
`may be more significant in creating a commercial impression.(cid:160) Disclaimed matter is typically less significant or less dominant when comparing
`marks.(cid:160) See In re Dixie Rests., Inc., 105 F.3d 1405, 1407, 41 USPQ2d 1531, 1533-34 (Fed. Cir. 1997); In re Nat’l Data Corp. , 753 F.2d 1056,
`1060, 224 USPQ 749, 752 (Fed. Cir. 1985); TMEP §1207.01(b)(viii), (c)(ii).
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`n addition, consumers are generally more inclined to focus on the first word, prefix or syllable in any trademark or service mark.(cid:160) See Palm Bay
`Imps., Inc. v. Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Maison Fondee En 1772, 396 F. 3d 1369, 1372, 73 USPQ2d 1689, 1692 (Fed. Cir. 2005); see also
`Mattel Inc. v. Funline Merch. Co., 81 USPQ2d 1372, 1374-75 (TTAB 2006); Presto Prods., Inc. v. Nice-Pak Prods., Inc., 9 USPQ2d 1895, 1897
`(TTAB 1988) (“it is often the first part of a mark which is most likely to be impressed upon the mind of a purchaser and remembered” when
`making purchasing decisions).
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160) As it is identical to the applicant’s mark, the marks
`
`(cid:160)F
`
`or these reasons, the term “JUNGLE” is the dominant portion of the registrant’s mark.
`create a very similar commercial impression.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he applicant’s relevant services in Class 35 are identical to the registrant’s services.(cid:160) If the goods and/or services of the respective parties are
`“similar in kind and/or closely related,” the degree of similarity between the marks required to support a finding of likelihood of confusion is
`not as great as would be required with diverse goods and/or services.(cid:160) In re J.M. Originals Inc., 6 USPQ2d 1393, 1394 (TTAB 1987); see Shen
`Mfg. Co. v. Ritz Hotel Ltd., 393 F.3d 1238, 1242, 73 USPQ2d 1350, 1354 (Fed. Cir. 2004); TMEP §1207.01(b).
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`s the services are so closely related, and as they are identified by such similar marks, a likelihood of confusion exists between the applicant’s
`mark in connection with its Class 35 services and the mark in the cited registration.(cid:160) Accordingly, registration is refused with regard to Class 35
`in this application.

`
`he filing dates of pending Application Serial Nos. 77887775 and 77887883 precede applicant’s filing date. (cid:160) See attached referenced
`applications.(cid:160) If one or more of the marks in the referenced applications register, applicant’s mark may be refused registration under Trademark
`Act Section 2(d) because of a likelihood of confusion with the registered marks.(cid:160) See 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); 37 C.F.R. §2.83; TMEP §§1208 et
`seq.(cid:160) Therefore, upon receipt of applicant’s response to this Office action, action on this application may be suspended pending final disposition
`of the earlier-filed referenced applications.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`n response to this Office action, applicant may present arguments in support of registration by addressing the issue of the potential conflict
`between applicant’s mark and the marks in the referenced applications. (cid:160) Applicant’s election not to submit arguments at this time in no way
`limits applicant’s right to address this issue later if a refusal under Section 2(d) issues.
`
`(cid:160)P
`
`lease note that this potential refusal to register pertains only to applicant’s goods and services in Classes 25 and 35.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`lthough applicant’s mark has been refused registration, applicant may respond to the refusal by submitting evidence and arguments in support
`of registration.

`downloadable image files, downloadable electronic publications and newsletters, downloadable music files, photographs,
`art, video and computer game characters, scenes, and images via the Internet and wireless device” is unacceptable as

`services is indefinite and must be clarified because the nature of the services is unclear.(cid:160) See TMEP §1402.01.(cid:160) In addition, the wording does not
`appear to identify services for trademark registration purposes in that it appears to refer to activities that are ancillary to applicant’s core
`business and also inure to applicant’s benefit and not those of third parties. (cid:160) The promotion of one’s own products (in this case, game
`commodities) is not considered to be a separate service for trademark registration purposes.(cid:160) To resolve this issue, applicant may adopt the
