Helix (Trade Mark: Inter Partes): IPO 2 Oct 2006

IPO The opposition was based on the opponents’ mark HELIS, registered in respect of what was agreed were identical goods.
The matter therefore came down to a comparison of the marks. These the Hearing Officer found to be ‘highly similar and, from on aural point of view, all but indistinguishable’.
The opposition under Section 5(2)(b) succeeded accordingly.
