Pino Filed August 27, 2018 For THE MERRIWEATHER Attorney Reference No. 093504-06280 MOTION TO SUSPEND AND REMAND FOR CONSIDERATION OF ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE Applicant, IMH Columbia, LLC, (“Applicant”) requests that the Board suspend the appeal regarding Serial No. 88/094,045 and remand the application to the Trademark Examining Attorney for reconsideration of new evidence. Under 37 CFR § 2.142(d), the evidentiary record in an application should be complete prior to filing of the ex parte appeal; if the appellant wishes to introduce additional evidence after an appeal is filed, the appellant should submit a request to the Board to suspend the appeal and remand the application for further examination. See also TBMP § 1207.01. Applicant previously submitted additional evidence in the form of a consent agreement in order to overcome the 2(d) refusal. 4 TTABVUE 1. The application was remanded to the Examining Attorney, who withdrew the 2(d) refusal but maintained the 2(e)(4) refusal. 5 TTABVUE 1; 6 TTABVUE 1. After it was made clear to the Applicant that the Examining Attorney was going to maintain the 2(e)(4) refusal, Applicant was made aware of additional evidence that will support its argument against the 2(e)(4) refusal that had not been previously made of record. 1 Applicant therefore requests that the Board suspend the appeal and remand the application to the Examining Attorney so that the Examining Attorney has the opportunity to review this additional evidence. For ease of reference and review, Applicant attaches the appeal brief to the Board with the additional evidence referenced in the Exhibits to the brief. Applicant respectfully submits that the additional evidence is highly persuasive of registrability, and respectfully requests that the Examining Attorney withdraw his Section 2(e)(4) refusal based on the attached arguments and additional evidence which Applicant wishes to make of record.

DESCRIPTION OF THE RECORD On August 27, 2018, Applicant filed a Section 1(b) application for registration of THE MERRIWEATHER for “hotel services” in Class 43. On December 13, 2018, the Examiner issued an Office action requiring additional information from the Applicant and initially refusing registration based on an alleged likelihood of confusion with the marks Registration No. 4,839,304 for MERRIWEATHER for “entertainment services, namely, providing a facility for musical concerts, music festivals and live show performances; entertainment, namely live music concerts; arranging and conducting of concerts; conducting entertainment exhibitions in the nature of music festivals; entertainment in the nature of music festivals” in Class 41. The Examiner also initially refused registration on the ground that Applicant’s mark is primarily merely a surname under Section 2(e)(4) of the Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1052(e)(4). Applicant responded to the first Office action on April 17, 2019 providing the requested information and arguing against the Section 2(d) refusal based on the dissimilarity of the services, and arguing against the Section 2(e)(4) refusal on the grounds that the surname is rare, no one associated with the Applicant has the surname, there are other recognized meanings for the term, and the applied-for mark does not have the structure and pronunciation of a surname. The Examiner issued a second and final Office action on April 29, 2019 maintaining the Section 2(d) refusal based on an alleged likelihood of confusion with the mark of the cited registration, the Section 2(e)(4) primarily merely a surname refusal, and the request for information. Applicant filed a notice of Appeal on October 28, 2019. Applicant then filed a Motion to Suspend and Remand for Reconsideration with the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (“TTAB”) 1 on November 27, 2019. In its Request for Reconsideration, Applicant submitted a consent from the owner of the registration cited in the Examiner’s 2(d) Refusal. The Examiner issued a Reconsideration Letter on December 17, 2019 maintaining the Section 2(e)(4) refusal and withdrawing the 2(d) refusal and the information requirement. The Board resumed the proceedings on December 17, 2019, granting Applicant sixty (60) days to file its appeal brief. II. STATEMENT OF THE ISSUES The only remaining issue on this appeal is whether Applicant’s mark THE MERRIWEATHER for “hotel services” in Class 43 is primarily merely a surname under Section 2(e)(4) of the Trademark Act. III. RECITATION OF FACTS Applicant IMH Columbia, LLC, DBA Sheraton Columbia Town Center (“Applicant”) is a hotel operator. On August 27, 2018, Applicant filed an application to register the mark THE MERRIWEATHER for “hotel services” in Class 43, on the basis of 1(b), intent to use. (See Application). As noted in response to the Examiner’s request for information, Applicant does not yet have a website showing use of the mark in connection with the applied-for services, and the mark is not yet in use. (See April 17, 2019 response to Office Action). Applicant intends to operate a hotel under the mark THE MERRIWEATHER. As also noted in the response to the Examiner’s request for information, no person associated with Applicant has the surname Merriweather. (See April 17, 2019 response to Office Action). 2 IV. ARGUMENT In determining whether or not the mark of a pending application is primarily merely a surname under Section 2(e)(4) of the Lanham Act, the analysis is whether when the mark is viewed in relation to the goods or services for which registration is sought, its primary significance to the purchasing public is that of a surname.

  • ANDERTON Music Festival Capitalism
    1 Music Festival Capitalism Chris Anderton Abstract: This chapter adds to a growing subfield of music festival studies by examining the business practices and cultures of the commercial outdoor sector, with a particular focus on rock, pop and dance music events. The events of this sector require substantial financial and other capital in order to be staged and achieve success, yet the market is highly volatile, with relatively few festivals managing to attain longevity. It is argued that these events must balance their commercial needs with the socio-cultural expectations of their audiences for hedonistic, carnivalesque experiences that draw on countercultural understanding of festival culture (the countercultural carnivalesque). This balancing act has come into increased focus as corporate promoters, brand sponsors and venture capitalists have sought to dominate the market in the neoliberal era of late capitalism. The chapter examines the riskiness and volatility of the sector before examining contemporary economic strategies for risk management and audience development, and critiques of these corporatizing and mainstreaming processes. Keywords: music festival; carnivalesque; counterculture; risk management; cool capitalism A popular music festival may be defined as a live event consisting of multiple musical performances, held over one or more days (Shuker, 2017, 131), though the connotations of 2 the word “festival” extend much further than this, as I will discuss below. For the purposes of this chapter, “popular music” is conceived as music that is produced by contemporary artists, has commercial appeal, and does not rely on public subsidies to exist, hence typically ranges from rock and pop through to rap and electronic dance music, but excludes most classical music and opera (Connolly and Krueger 2006, 667).

Collin Chua was also very helpful during a period when Tony was on leave; thank you, Collin. Tony Mitchell and Kim Poole read the final draft of the thesis and provided some valuable and timely feedback. Cheers. Ian Collinson, Michelle Phillipov and Diana Springford each recommended readings; Zac Dadic sent some hard to find recordings to me from interstate; Andrew Khedoori offered me a show at 2SER-FM, where I learnt about some of the artists in this study, and where I had the good fortune to interview Dawn McCarthy; and Brendan Smyly and Diana Blom are valued colleagues of mine at University of Western Sydney who have consistently been up for robust discussions of research matters. Many thanks to you all. My friend Stephen Creswell’s amazing record collection has been readily available to me and has proved an invaluable resource. A hearty thanks! And most significant has been the support of my partner Zoë. Thanks and love to you for the many ways you helped to create a space where this research might take place.
