Headnote
A composite mark was refused on its word element alone. The application covered a device and a tag line as well, and the order gave no reason at all why the composite as a whole was non-distinctive or descriptive. Marks sharing the same descriptive word had been registered for the same services, which the Court said raised a doubt about why this applicant alone had been refused.
Disposition
Allowed. Impugned order quashed and the Registry directed to publish the mark in the journal.
