v.
Mark: oGRO
oGRO LLC,
U.S. Serial No.: 88/203,332
Applicant.
NOTICE OF OPPOSITION
OMS Investments, Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of
Delaware, with an office at 10250 Constellation Boulevard, Suite 2800, Los Angeles, California
90067 (“Opposer”), believes that it will be damaged by registration of the mark oGRO that is the
subject of United States Trademark Application Serial No. 88/203,332 (the “Opposed Mark”),
filed in the name of oGRO LLC (“Applicant”), a Florida limited liability company with an
address at 2770 Indian River Blvd., Suite 501, Vero Beach, FL 32960 and therefore hereby
opposes such registration pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1063. In support of its opposition, Opposer
states as follows:
1. Applicant is the owner of U.S. Trademark Application Serial No. 88/203,332 for
the Opposed Mark, filed on November 22, 2018, reciting “organic plant nutrient” in International
Class 1 (“Applied-for goods”).
2. Opposer, through its predecessors-in-interest and affiliates, has been and is now,
extensively engaged in the business of marketing and selling, in interstate commerce, an
extensive number of goods and services for growing plants. In connection with the marketing
and sale of such goods and services, Opposer has extensively used, since well prior to
2
Applicant’s filing date, and continues to use, the mark MIRACLE-GRO and various GRO-
formative marks (collectively “MIRACLE-GRO Marks.”). Opposer has used its MIRACLE-
GRO mark in U.S. commerce since at least as early as 1951.
3. In addition to common law rights in the MIRACLE-GRO Marks, Opposer owns
several U.S. federal trademark registrations for its MIRACLE-GRO Marks, as reflected in the
following representative registrations:

These registrations are valid, subsisting and in full force and effect. See printouts from the
USPTO’s TSDR database, attached hereto as Exhibit A, showing the current status and title of
each of the foregoing registrations. Each of the registrations noted above were issued on the
Principal Register. Notably, Registration Nos. 0,668,868; 1,223,038; 2,601,682; 2,618,699;
2,820,953; 2,822,655; 3,180,531; 3,190,987; 3,233,837; 4,289,146; 4,301,017; 4,301,405; and
4,301,406 have achieved incontestable status and therefore constitute conclusive evidence of
Opposer’s ownership and exclusive rights to use the subject mark in commerce.
4. Opposer’s MIRACLE-GRO Marks are strong and distinctive. Opposer’s goods
and services offered in connection with the MIRACLE-GRO Marks have been, and continue to
be marketed and sold in United States commerce. Further, Opposer and its predecessors in
6
interest and affiliates have extensively promoted and sold Opposer’s goods and services in
connection with the MIRACLE-GRO Marks in the United States. By reason of such advertising,
promotion and sale of Opposer’s goods and services under the MIRACLE-GRO Marks, Opposer
has developed substantial goodwill and strong common law rights in connection with the
MIRACLE-GRO Marks and the MIRACLE-GRO Marks became famous prior to Applicant’s
filing date. Indeed, Opposer’s MIRACLE-GRO Marks are among the most recognizable and
valuable brands in the fertilizer, lawn, garden and horticulture industries.
5. Notwithstanding Opposer’s prior rights in and to the MIRACLE-GRO Marks, on
November 22, 2018, Applicant filed an application to register the Opposed Mark for the
Applied-for-goods. At the time it filed its application, Applicant had at least constructive
knowledge of Opposer’s rights in the MIRACLE-GRO Marks.
6. Opposer’s rights in the MIRACLE-GRO Marks predate Applicant’s rights in the
Opposed Mark.
7. The Opposed Mark is confusingly similar, in appearance, sound, meaning, and
commercial impression, to Opposer’s registered and unregistered MIRACLE-GRO Marks. The
registration and use of the Opposed Mark by Applicant in association with the claimed goods is
likely to cause confusion as to the source or origin of Applicant’s goods, and is likely to mislead
consumers, all to Opposer’s damage.
8. The goods and services that Opposer provides under the registered and
unregistered MIRACLE-GRO Marks are identical and, at a minimum, closely related or similar
to the goods listed in Application Serial No. 88/203,332, and the goods and services are offered
to identical, similar or overlapping classes of purchasers.
9. The Opposed Mark, when used in connection with Applicant’s applied-for goods,
7
is likely to cause confusion, to cause mistake, and to deceive the trade and public, who, upon
seeing the Opposed Mark in connection with Applicant’s applied-for goods, would believe that
such goods originate with, are approved, sponsored or endorsed by, or have some connection or
affiliation with Opposer. Accordingly, registration of the Opposed Mark would damage Opposer,
and registration therefore should be refused pursuant to Section 2(d) of the Trademark Act.
10. Applicant’s registration and use of the Opposed Mark is likely to cause dilution of
Opposer’s famous registered and unregistered MIRACLE-GRO Marks, by lessening the capacity
of the MIRACLE-GRO Marks to identify and distinguish Opposer’s goods and services and by
harming the reputation of the MIRACLE-GRO Marks, all to Opposer’s detriment. Accordingly,
registration of the Opposed Mark should be refused based on a likelihood of dilution by blurring
and tarnishment, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §1125(c).
WHEREFORE, Opposer believes that it will be damaged by registration of the mark,
which is the subject of United States Trademark Application Serial No. 88/203,332, and
therefore respectfully requests that such registration be refused.
The Director is hereby authorized to charge the filing fee for this Notice of Opposition to
Deposit Account No. 12-0913.
