If the trade marks registry consider that your mark is similar to an existing registered trade mark, they will automatically send a copy of your application to the owner of that existing registered trade mark.
…
A notice of threatened opposition is not a formal opposition to your registration, but it is an indication that someone may file an opposition before the end of the extended 3 month opposition period. It gives the interested third party more time to prepare their opposition. Sometimes, but not always, you may receive a letter from the third party or their legal representative asking you to withdraw your trade mark application, or asking you to limit the goods or services of your application. Receiving such a letter does not commence any formal opposition proceedings at the trade marks registry. Only when a third party files an actual opposition (usually on form TM7) and pays the opposition fee is a formal opposition commenced.
That is horrific news! So are all Amiga parties tooling up on IP litigation for the final battle of armageddon or something?
@Matthew You should be enjoying Wales progressing in the Euros not suing valued members of the community in an area of business unrelated to your core business! Have you learnt nothing from Hyperion alienating the community. They may have won the AmigaOS license but they've lost the hearts and minds of the Amiga faithful! Do you feel lucky carrying on down this path?
