Summary

The mark had been assigned to the present proprietors by Allied Domecq in May 1997. The mark was not in use at that stage and there was no concrete evidence that the former proprietors had ever used the mark. The Hearing Officer found no evidence of genuine use by the present proprietors, and no proper reasons for non-use.
