Dear Michelle,

Following our previous email, please find attached the brief reflecting your comments and edits.

We recommend keeping the bad-faith argument in its current placement. Our lead grounds are the priority claim and, the recognition and well-known status of our client’s trademarks. If they accepts those grounds, a bad-faith analysis would be unnecessary, though we maintain it as a supporting basis.

Please let me know if you agree.

We look forward to your feedback at your earliest convenience, as the brief must be filed in hard copy before the Ministry.

Thank you,

Guillermo

Dear Michelle,

Thank you for your comments and edits. We will apply the changes and revert with the final drafts shortly.

Regarding the “well-known” argument, we have been cautious because the client expressed concern about prompting an adverse determination that the marks are not well known. For that reason, we emphasized recognition and likelihood of confusion rather than seeking a formal well-known declaration. Please also note that the recent Venezuelan applications for   were opposed by Mr. Emir Isaac Bastidas Hernández.

Best regards,

Guillermo

Dear Guillermo,

Thank you for these drafts. Our edits and comments are in the attached versions for your review. We look forward to receiving your thoughts as soon as possible, in light of the upcoming filing deadline.

In the META MUNDO brief, we took out some of the references to the Meta Symbol design mark, as the arguments are focused on comparing the META MUNDO and META word marks (and the trademark office was clearly previously confused when it compared META MUNDO and the design mark and found no likelihood of confusion). We have also added in language to stress that Meta’s use of META HORIZON WORLDS increases the likelihood of confusion with the applicant’s META MUNDO mark, which means META WORLD, especially given all of the applicant’s bad faith filings including for Meta’s exact Meta Symbol.

In both briefs, would it be helpful to argue that the Meta Lockup (  ) mark is well-known as well and raise concerns regarding the likelihood of confusion with that mark, given that it includes both the META word mark and the Meta Symbol design element? We understand that Meta filed its application for this mark in Venezuela in January of 2025, so please let us know if there would be any negative consequences in mentioning it as a well-known trademark in these briefs.

Best,

Michelle

META MUNDO

7

2021-009206

EMIR ISAAC BASTIDAS HERNANDEZ

Our reconsideration was based on the existence of graphic and phonetic identity between the META MUNDO and the META trademarks, as well as the likelihood of confusion and association among consumers. In parallel, the applicant also filed a reconsideration request, arguing that their mark is clearly distinguishable from the basis of the rejection and targets a different consumer segment.

Unfortunately, the Trademark Office has decided to reject our Motion for Reconsideration and has granted the registration of the META MUNDO mark in Class 7. This decision is disappointing, as it overlooks the substantial evidence we presented regarding the risk of confusion and the similarities between the marks as well as it fails to address the key arguments presented in our initial opposition brief, like the priority of the META PLATFORMS trademark applications, the documentation supporting the well-known of the META trademarks, and the clear indications of bad faith on the part of the applicant.

We strongly recommend appealing this decision, by filing an appeal before the Ministry of Commerce until the deadline of September 4th, 2025.

In relation to the chances of success, we believe we have strong and solid arguments to win the case (70%). Nevertheless, the TMO has been issuing bulk decisions without providing reasoning, and unfortunately the Ministry has recently tended to confirm those decisions in favor of the TMO.

We have already requested a hearing before the TMO, as we are concerned with this type of approach and decisions. In the event that the decision is not favorable, there is still another instance available before the courts, where we can continue to defend the client’s rights, before a judge.

We look forward to your comments.

Best regards,

Guillermo

Hi Jenine,

Thank you for your email.

Please find attached a copy of the decision.

We will file a writ with all the corresponding arguments, and the TMO should review and decide. The cost for this will be USD 800.00

In case the other party does not file an appeal, we will withdraw and allow the trademark to lapse, this would be the best scenario for this case.

At this stage, we do not require any additional information or documentation from your side to proceed. Also, this decision does not affect the defensive cases.

Best regards,

Guillermo

Dear Guillermo,

Thank you for your responses. Additionally, do you have a copy of the decision? What is the process and cost for appealing the VPTO’s decision in the META MUNDO opposition in Class 7? Would you require any additional information or documentation to appeal? And does this decision have any effect on the defensive cases?

Kind regards,

Subject: Response Requested Today RE: Request for Confirmation (~Deadline 30-APR-2024): Meta Platforms, Inc. // Pot. Opps. META // Venezuela [1329009.1] [1329009.2] [1329009.3] [1329009.4] [1329009.5] [1329009.6] [1329009.7] [1329009.8]
Importance: High

Dear Guillermo,

In addition to the inquiries noted in Monday’s email, we have the following additional questions. Given the deadline, please advise of your responses today, if possible, to allow time for the client to review.

  *   If we appeal, is there a risk that the trademark office will issue a written decision that would hurt MP’s arguments/case here or in the other oppositions?  For example, could the TMO find that MP’s mark does not have reputation in Venezuela, or other harmful statements?  Or is the risk low here given that this particular filing is for Class 7 and is for the META MUNDO mark? Effectively, the risk is low. The main issue is that the TMO is not motivating their decisions at this moment.
  *   The META standalone and META symbol marks (at least in Class 9) seem to be stronger cases, but do you see a risk of any similar decision being issued in the other pending cases (especially those involving Classes 7 and 11) and do you recommend withdrawing or taking any additional steps at this point given the decision? No, we must wait for the decision that are promptly to be issued.
  *   Additionally, we have defensive disputes with this applicant.  Does this decision have any effect on the defensive cases?  How do the defensive proceedings play into whether we should appeal?
  *   If we don’t appeal, and Mr. Bastidas does, would MP have any chance to challenge the mark at a later point/post-registration? No, which is why we recommend challenging the decision and maintaining our legal interest. It will always be possible to request nullity later, but we do not recommend allowing the matter to reach that stage.
  *   What does the appeal consist of?  It is a pro forma appeal?  If we appeal, but Mr. Bastidas doesn’t, can we withdraw our appeal and simply let the application die? This will be a writ in which we will sustain our arguments. Yes. It will be possible to withdraw the appeal and let the application die.

Kind regards,

Jenine

Dear Guillermo,

Thank you for the update. Do you have a copy of the decision? If the client does not appeal, would the VPTO consider the lack of appeal in the other pending oppositions? What is the process and cost for appealing the VPTO’s decision in the META MUNDO opposition in Class 7? Would you require any additional information or documentation to appeal?

Kind regards,

Jenine

Dear Jenine, We wish to inform you that we have recently received a decision regarding the opposition filed against application No. 2021-009206 for META MUNDO in class 07 (KTS Ref: [1329009. 3]). In its decision, the VPTO dismissed META’s opposition,

Dear Jenine,

We wish to inform you that we have recently received a decision regarding the opposition filed against application No. 2021-009206 for META MUNDO in class 07 (KTS Ref: [1329009.3]).

In its decision, the VPTO dismissed META’s opposition, concluding that the opposed application does not fall within the alleged grounds of non-registrability. Nevertheless, the application was ex officio rejected based on a third-party prior right: registration No. P340248 in class 07, owned by II-VI Delaware, Inc., for the mark META, valid until May 20, 2029.

It is important to highlight that the decision lacks proper reasoning. The VPTO did not provide any justification for rejecting META’s opposition and failed to assess the admissibility and merits of the evidence submitted.

Although the application has been ex officio rejected, Mr. Bastidas has until June 19, 2025 to appeal the decision. In light of the pending oppositions filed against his other applications, we strongly recommend considering an appeal of the dismissal of META’s opposition, for the following reasons:

  *   The absence of reasoning in the decision fails to meet the legal standards of validity, depriving META of clarity regarding the grounds for dismissal and affecting its procedural rights.
  *   While the application includes the element MUNDO and refers to goods in class 07, we maintain that it reproduces the distinctive element META to identify analogous goods.
  *   Under current VPTO practice, the chances of success in this particular appeal are considered medium-low 45%, as the goods listed in class 07 may be viewed as sufficiently dissimilar to those covered by META’s priority applications and META4 registrations in classes 09, 37, and 42.

As previously noted, filing an appeal would preserve META’s standing in this proceeding in the event Mr. Bastidas decides to appeal the rejection of his application.

If META wishes to proceed with the appeal, the deadline to do so is June 19, 2025.

We remain at your disposal and would appreciate your comments at your earliest convenience.

Best regards,

Guillermo

Dear Guillermo,

Thank you for the drafts. However, we noticed some of the changes we originally sent (attached) are not implemented, such as updated Sensor Tower statistics and other changes. Can you revise one of the drafts to note any of our revisions that you agree should be implemented? Then we can review and have any additional changes applied to the remaining briefs. We would kindly appreciate the revised brief by Thursday morning to move this matter forward.

Kind regards,

Jenine

Thanks, Gustavo.  Yes, we would like to see the drafts for each submission before they are filed.  I believe we are only working on the offensive submissions right now (which is the team I’m working with), so if you could send us the proposed draft for each opposition we would appreciate it as the argument and details might differ for each submission.  No need for translations – we will simply run computerized translations on our side.

Hi Lauren,

Thank you for your email and for your detailed review of the draft.

The arguments you've highlighted will indeed be beneficial for our offensive writs. We can use these points to demonstrate a confession that their actions were made in bad faith and aimed at obstructing normal competition. I believe this strategy will strengthen our position.

Regarding the arguments about the fame of Meta’s marks, we are of the opinion that they will not jeopardize our other proceedings. We can confidently include these arguments, as they will support our case without posing a risk to our defensive actions.

Could you please confirm if we should proceed to send you the draft for every action, both defensive and offensive, for your review before filing?

Thank you again for your valuable input. Looking forward to your feedback.

Best regards,

Guillermo

Hi Guillermo,

Thank you for your patience as we reviewed this draft.  As you may recall, there are defensive disputes involving this applicant as well.  In reviewing the defensive pleadings, we see that the following was included:

(vii) The confession of the controversial facts (admission) by EMIR ISAAC BASTIDAS HERNÁNDEZ.

To the objector having freely, voluntarily and spontaneously alleged the risk of confusion between the META signs, previously objected by MY REPRESENTATIVE, with the previous META applications, as stated in his opposition brief, there is an explicit acknowledgment by him of that said similarities may generate confusion or risk of association in the consuming public, the facts about the resemblance being demonstrated, and therefore the confusion that the presence of a product or service named under META may cause in the consumer, when the requests previously exist META , as had been alleged by MY REPRESENTATIVE in his opposition brief.

In this sense, and in accordance with our current legal system, the Civil Code of Venezuela contemplates within its provisions a section referring to confession, where the statement made by the observer in his opposition brief is framed as follows:

Article 1401: "The confession made by a party or by his attorney within the limits of the mandate, before a judge, even if he is incompetent, makes full proof against it."

Article 1402: “The extrajudicial confession produces the same effect, if it is made to the party himself or to the person who represents him”.

The foregoing serves as the basis for the statements and acknowledgments made by the objector to be considered as full proof and, therefore, to have the corresponding legal effects and be valued as such. That is, it is considered that the META sign requested by EMIR ISAAC BASTIDAS HERNÁNDEZ presents sufficient similarities with respect to the META trademarks previously requested by MY REPRESENTATIVE and based on this, this Office proceeds to declare WITH LUGAR the oppositions presented by MY REPRESENTATIVE, and dismiss as inadmissible, the arguments presented by the opponent.

Would it be useful to these offensive substantiations to mention that Mr. Hernandez’s separate proceedings against Meta’s filings serve as an admission of confusion here as well?  Are there any other changes that you recommend making in light of the related defensive proceedings?

Also, do you see any defensive issues with including the supporting arguments that Meta’s marks are well-known/recognized and that this recognition serves as evidence of the applicant’s bad faith?  As noted previously, we do not want to TMO to issue a separate ruling on whether the META mark is famous or otherwise risk a finding that might hurt MP in any defensive proceedings. Are there any other ways to edit/minimize the fame arguments without significantly affecting the chances of success?

We look forward to your thoughts. In addition, we would like to receive a draft of the proposed submission for each application for our review before they are filed.

Best regards,

Lauren

Dear Jenine,

We have reviewed your comments and have made the necessary changes to the draft. We have rephrased the arguments as requested to mitigate any potential risks.

We are now sharing the updated draft for your review and further comments.

Regarding the fame/notorious mark claims, we understand your concerns and have taken them into consideration. We have softened the language in the pleading to minimize any risks regarding the proclamation on the fame of MP’s marks.

Please review the updated draft and let us know if you have any further thoughts or suggestions on the strategy for this pleading.

Looking forward to your comments.

Best regards,

Guillermo

Dear Guillermo,

Thank you for this draft.  You will see that we have put the arguments regarding priority at the beginning of the brief, as we feel that this is the strongest argument for this particular dispute.  Please let us know if you disagree.

We also have a few questions regarding the fame/notorious mark claims. As a general matter, MP tries to avoid separate claims that its Meta Marks are famous if there is a risk that the TMO might issue a finding that the MP’s marks are NOT famous, or if those arguments might be used against Meta in defensive proceedings. For example, we might use the reputation of the Meta Marks as part of the overall arguments to show that the marks are likely to be confused, or that the applicant is aware of MP’s marks and is taking advantage of Meta’s reputation.

With that background in mind, we are curious if there are some ways to soften/finesse the language in this pleading (although we note that many of these arguments/claims were in the underlying opposition). Would it be possible/recommended to remove or reword the fame claims to avoid or minimize any risks of a negative proclamation on the fame of MP’s marks? We realize that we need to address the applicant’s territoriality arguments but would appreciate your thoughts on the best wording and presentation in light of any relevant risks.

We look forward to your thoughts on the strategy for this pleading. Once we have finalized the proposed arguments here, we can then consider how to best approach the remaining filings.

Kind regards,

Jenine

Dear Guillermo,

Thank you for your prompt reply. For the responses to our questions that you provided below, we were hoping you could respond with chances of success expressed as a numerical percentage (e.g., chances would remain at 70%, chances would decrease but only 5%, etc.). Please let us know if you can supplement your responses below with this information.

In addition, we would appreciate your input on the following 4 questions:

  1.  Please let us know if there is a deadline for filing the supplemental brief. No, there are no deadlines, we have until the decision is rendered.
  2.  If there is no firm deadline, please provide your recommended timing for filing the supplemental brief. Since some of these filings are for MP’s exact mark, we want to make sure that we support these oppositions as needed. As soon we file the supplemental evidence better (next month).
  3.  Please let us know what evidence you recommend filing, including whether reputational evidence is needed. All the reputational evidence support will be important, as well as TM registration worldwide, any recognition of fame, well-known, notoriety, any favorable decision in similar cases
  4.  Please let us know if you recommend reaching out to the applicant with a demand letter at this point. The applicant is not using the trademarks and it seems like an strategy to get money for this, but for now we have an strong case.
  5.  Additionally, was the supplemental evidence is filed, we can arrange a meeting with the VPTO register and expose our case, trying to have a favorable decision.

It would be most helpful if you could provide us with your responses on the questions above by 2:00 PM EST this Thursday, March 21, 2024.

Kind regards,

Jacquelynne

Dear Guillermo,

We are reaching out first and foremost to make sure that you are receiving our emails. Can you please respond to confirm?

For the matter below, we need to discuss this with the client and so would appreciate receiving your input on by 9:00 AM on Monday, March 18. Could you please let us know if this is possible?

Based on your prior input, we understand it would be helpful to file supplemental briefs. We are following up for input on these 2 questions:

  1.  What are chances of success (for each mark, in each class) if we do not rely on MP’s acquired registrations? As we mentioned earlier, the chances of success still High, taking into account that the VPTO must respect the priority date according to the Paris Convention. General 70%
  2.  Will filing the supplemental briefs and evidence have a significant impact on our chances of success? If so, please let us know what impact this will have on chances of success, expressed as a percentage. In this case we have tom main arguments: 1.- Priority Claim and 2.- Well-Known and Notoriety, in this sense a supplemental brief will increase our chances of success reinforcing the argument of the notoriety of META and the bad faith of the applicant. The chances will increase by 10%

For ease of reference, we understand chances of success are, the current chances of success:

  *   META in Cls. 07, 09, and 11:

o    70% in 07 and 11

o    80% in 09

  *   META MUNDO in Cls. 07, 09, and 11:

o    70% in 07 and 11

o   80% in 09

  *   [A blue logo with a white background    Description automatically generated]  Meta Symbol in Cls. 09 and 11:

o    80% in 09

o   70% in 11

Thank you,

Dear Guillermo,

We appreciate your further input on this matter. We understand that chances of success are currently as follows for each of the oppositions:

  *   META in Classes 07, 09, and 11:

o   45% chances of success in Classes 07 and 11

o   65% chances of success in Class 09

  *   META MUNDO in Classes 07, 09, and 11:

o   45% chances of success in Classes 07 and 11

o   65% chances of success in Class 09

  *   [A blue logo with a white background    Description automatically generated]  Meta Symbol in Classes 09 and 11:

o   75% chances of success in Class 09

o   70% chances of success in Class 11

For each of the opposed marks above, please revert to let us know chances of success (expressed as a percentage) for each class:

  1.  Chances of success if we do not rely on MP’s acquired registrations
  2.  Chances of success if we do rely on MP’s acquired registrations

As for the supplemental brief discussed below, we note that MP’s preference at this point is to refrain from arguing well-known status. Please let us know if this has a significant impact on your recommendation that we proceed with filing the supplemental brief.

Kind regards,

Jacquelynne

Dear Guillermo,

We would appreciate your further input regarding this matter, taking into considerations the ongoing defensive opposition proceedings and arguments recently filed there.

We understand that the applicant filed responses to our oppositions (see attached pdf as example), in which he raised several arguments – including that his applications were filed prior to MP’s; therefore, he argues his marks should be granted given this claim of priority. You previously recommended that we file complimentary briefs to refute the foregoing arguments, possibly claiming that MP also owns a group of acquired registrations for the marks META4 PAYROLL, META4 PEOPLENET, META4 KNOWNET and META4MIND WORKS, so as to reinforce our priority rights claims.

We note that the client is hesitant to rely on its acquired trademark registrations, given that there could be difficulties in enforcing the registrations. Given this hesitancy, we would appreciate your input on the following questions:

  *   Given that all of Mr. Bastida’s marks were filed in November/December 2021, please confirm that MP would still have priority based on MP’s Jamaica applications (even though MP’s Venezuelan marks were filed later). Yes, MP still have priority based on the Jamaica TM applications.
  *   If we were not to rely on the acquired registrations, what would be MP’s chances of success in the opposition? The chances are still High, taking into account that the VPTO must respect the priority date according to the Paris Convention.
  *   If we were to rely on the acquired registrations, what would be MP’s chances of success in the opposition? The chances will increase.
  *   Taking into consideration MP’s arguments filed in the defensive oppositions with this party (see email attached), would it be helpful to file supplemental arguments in MP’s oppositions to Mr. Bastida’s marks, echoing the same arguments? Would doing so positively impact our chances of success? Yes, we can file supplemental arguments, our strongest arguments in this case will be the priority date, the well-known and the bad faith. Of the applicant.
  *   Do you recommend filing any other evidence or arguments in the offensive oppositions at this point? Yes, we can file this evidence in the supplemental writs. Once we filed them, we can also try to ask for a hearing with the registrar and explain all the situation in order to try a positive decision.

We appreciate as always your kind assistance, and ask that you send an email in response to confirm your receipt of this request.

Kind regards,

Jacquelynne

Dear Raina,

Thank you for your email.

Unfortunately, we do not anticipate a decision in the near future. Nevertheless, we are applying pressure on the VPTO to expedite the resolution of these cases.

Regarding reaching out to the applicant, please consider that Mr. Bastidas has also filed. for other well-known trademarks within the fashion industry. It appears that he may be attempting to profit from this activity.

As a first step, we can make an effort with the VPTO and request a hearing with the registrar to explain the situation. If this does not yield results, we can explore the option of contacting the applicant.

We look forward for your thoughts and comments.

Best regards,

Guillermo

Hi Raina, at this moment, it’s not necessary to reply. Nevertheless, and in order to give more strength to the notoriety and well-known claim of META, we can file the evidence material by which we could prove this claim (reviews, numbers of users, history, advertising material, TM registration in the world, etc.), we recommend to elaborate and affidavit with the after mentioned information, and file it as a complementary brief within the next (2 months after filing the opposition).

We look forward for your thoughts and comments.

Best regards,

Guillermo

Importance: High

Dear Raina:

Thank you for your emails below.

Please be informed of the following:

1. The oppositions filed against trademark META and trademark META MUNDO, are pending to be officially notified to the applicant in Official Gazette, therefore, the deadline for the applicant to reply to them is not open yet. If the applicant replies to the oppositions filed, we advise the preparation and filing of complimentary briefs to refute the applicant’s claims, where we could claim that client also owns a group of prior registrations (recently transferred) for META4 PAYROLL, META4 PEOPLENET, META4 KNOWNET and META4MIND WORKS, and reinforce our priority rights claims. The preparation and filing of a complementary brief have the following costs: Professional fees: US$ 350,00 + 16 % VAT / Expenses: US$ 45, 00

2. Yes, we can send the applicant a demand letter in which we can request them to withdrawal the applications filed for META, META MUNDO and META SYMBOL, nevertheless, we advise to proceed with them after the deadline for the applicant to reply to the oppositions expires. If we proceed before the deadline, we will put them on guard and the chances of an opposition reply will increase significantly. Please take note that if the applicant does not reply to the oppositions, the applications will be declared as Officially lapsed and the Venezuelan Trademark Office will close their files.

3. An eventual demand letter where we request the applicant to withdrawal the applications, would be on the grounds of client’s prior rights worldwide and META’s trademark fame, and also on the grounds of trademarks META4 PAYROLL, META4 PEOPLENET, META4 KNOWNET and META4MIND WORKS, which were recently transferred to client.

4. We would like to highlight the fact that our legislation does not foresee economic consequences (damages) to the party who losses an opposition. Thus, there isn’t any motivation that could persuade the applicant to withdrawal the applications. So, if you have something else to offer let us know (e.g, reimbursement of the expenses incurred in the preparation and filing of their applications and the oppositions’ reply briefs for these applications)

5.  Finally, if the applicant replies the oppositions we do not expect any decision regarding these cases in 3-5 years. The oppositions’ decisions can be appealed first before the Venezuelan Trademark Office, and their decision can also be appealed before the Ministry of Commerce, before filing an appeal at the Venezuelan courts (which could take 15 years in order to reach courts).

Should you have any additional questions, please let us know.

Best,

Mariateresa

Dear Raina:

Thank you for your below email.

Yes, the applicant did reply to the oppositions filed and claimed the following:

  *   Trademark rights are territorial.
  *   The exclusive rights over a trademark can be claimed or enforced only in the jurisdiction in which the trademark is registered, and not abroad.
  *   The applicant claimed that their applications are prior to client’s Venezuelan applications, therefore, their application should be officially granted.
  *   The applicant claim that their meta symbol is their interpretation of what such symbol means to them.

Since the applicant replied to the oppositions, we do not expect any decision regarding these cases in 3 – 5 years. Nevertheless, rest assured that if any news arises regarding these matters we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Finally, based on our experience and in light of the reply to the oppositions previously filed, we consider that the chances of a possible reply to the oppositions against trademark META and META MUNDO, are high. Nevertheless, we will get back to you as soon as the oppositions for META and META MUNDO are officially notified to the applicant.

Should you have any additional questions, please let us know.

Best,

Mariateresa

Dear Mariateresa and Guillermo,

MP would like to oppose the META and META MUNDO applications in Classes 7, 9, and 11 based on MP’s prior rights in META and bad faith grounds.

MP does not wish to oppose the META VERSO applications, so please do not take any further action with regard to those applications.

In addition to the draft META opposition previously requested, please also send us a draft META MUNDO opposition for review by no later than Friday, September 2, 2022 at 2 pm EST. Monday, September 5th is a U.S. holiday so we will try our best to send our comments on Friday.

Thank you.

Dear Raina:

Making use of the word metaverse in contexts would not be considered a bar (nor infringement), even if the applicant obtains the registration of trademark META VERSO. However, the applicant could exploit the name META VERSO for products in classes 9, 7 and 11.

Should you have any additional questions, please let us know.

Dear Mariateresa,

Thank you for your comments. It is unlikely that the client will use “metaverse” on products in Classes 7 and 11. Please advise if applicant could challenge MP’s current use of “metaverse” as shown here https://about.facebook.com/metaverse/.

Best,

Raina

Dear Raina:

Thank you for your email.

If the applicant’s META VERSO trademarks mature to registration, they could become a bar for any third party who pretends to use the term METAVERSO for products in classes 9, 11 and 7.

We consider that the chances of this applications mature to registration are low with or without oppositions, since the VTMO will perform a final exam in order to decide if the applications comply with our IP legislation, and they could suffer an ex-officio rejection at this stage of their prosecution, on the grounds of being considered a generic term. Nevertheless, we cannot assure you that the applications will be officially rejected, since there is always the chance that the examiners may overlook that they are a generic term for such classes.

In light of the above, we still advise to consider filing an opposition against the META VERSO applications in classes 7,9 and 11.

Should you have any additional questions, please let us know.

Best,

Dear Mariateresa,

Thank you for your comments. If applicant’s META VERSO applications mature to registration, what are Meta’s chances of success in defending a challenge to its descriptive use of “metaverse”?

Dear Raina:

In response to your inquiry, we inform you the following:

1. First, we would like to inform you that it was published a general deadline extension, therefore, the new opposition deadline is September 06, 2002.

2. We hereby confirm you that applicant’s identification of goods listed below, are class headings and cover all goods in the respective classes.

3. In regards to the META and META MUNDO applications, the fact that the applicant filed applications for MP’s exact Meta Symbol can reinforce our claims regarding the applicant’s bad faith, in an eventual opposition against their applications in Classes 7 and 11, in light of client’s trademark notoriety since they are trying to take advantage of their fame. Please take note that if MP were to oppose these applications and lose, the decision can be appealed before the VTMO and the application will remain pending for decision for at least 5 – 8 more years, and the appeal’s decision can also be appealed, and there are no legal or economic consequence for the client (e.g compensatory damages cannot be claimed).

4. The client can withdraw the opposition anytime without consequence.

5. If the applicant obtain rights over the mark META MUNDO he will have better chance to expand it to other classes, that is why we advise to take actions against their registration.

6. Regarding the applications for META VERSO we can attack them using the same claims we indicated above, and also we could claim that the applicant is trying to gain exclusive right over a term over which no one can claim exclusive rights, since it is a generic term which describes a new internet environment.

7. Finally, we acknowledge safe receipt of your instructions regarding the preparation and filing of the opposition for META in Class 9.

Looking forward to receiving your comments and final instructions.

Regards,

Mariateresa

Dear Mariateresa and Guillermo,

We have a few follow up questions before further discussing with the client. Please confirm applicant’s identification of goods listed below are class headings and cover all goods in the respective classes. In regards to the META and META MUNDO applications, we note your chances of success in Class 9 are higher given that MP’s owns a META application in Class 9. Does the fact that the applicant filed applications for MP’s exact Meta Symbol affect our chances of success in oppositions against applicant’s applications in Classes 7 and 11? Could we claim bad faith in those oppositions? If MP were to oppose these applications and lose, what are the consequences of a negative decision? Can we withdraw the oppositions?

Regarding the META VERSO applications, MP uses the term metaverse to describe an emerging digital space offering a hybrid of today's online social experiences using virtual and augmented reality. Please find some representative examples of Meta's uses of the descriptive term "metaverse" here: https://about.facebook.com/metaverse/. MP does not wish to claim rights in the term “metaverse” or assert arguments that its META filings and METAVERSE are likely to be confused. If the applications discussed below proceed to registration and the applicant were to object, what would be Meta's chances of success in defending a challenge to its descriptive use of "metaverse" (as shown on the link above)?

Dear Raina,

Thank you for your swift reply; we consider that the chances of success have increased due to the well-known of the META trademark; and that the same person has filed for all these trademarks, which will be an additional element to demonstrate the bad faith.
