This week, the TTAB decided the appeals from
the three Section 2(d) likelihood of confusion refusals summarized
below. At least one of the three refusals was affirmed. Let's
see how you do in divining the results. [Answer will be found in
the first comment.]
In re Jacqueline Anne Occasions, LLC, Application Serial
No. 88264864 (April 20, 2021) [not precedential] (Opinion by Judge
Robert H. Coggins). [Section 2(d) refusal of JACQUELINE
ANNE OCCASIONS [OCCASIONS disclaimed] in view of the
registered mark JACQUELINE EVENTS & DESIGN
[EVENTS & DESIGN disclaimed], for overlapping wedding planning
services. Applicant argued that the commercial impression of the
marks differ because the cited mark is "highly suggestive of a
person named JACQUELINE" whereas Applicant's mark
identifies "JACQUELINE ANNE," a different person with a
different name.]
