Nullity action against confusing trademark and logo. The firm is advising Tinka on a nullity action against the counterparty’s trademark APUESTO.COM and its respective design in class 41, on the basis that it is confusing with the trademark TE APUESTO, owed by the client. Our role is to ensure the authority declares the trademark null and recognises TE APUESTO.COM as a well-known trademark.
Leading player in Peruvian gaming market: La Tinka is a Peruvian company specialising in managing games of chance. It is mainly recognised for the Tinka lottery and, more recently, for «Te Apuesto,» a popular sports betting platform. The introduction of «Te Apuesto» has been an important milestone in the client’s history, managing to capture the attention of a diverse public and promoting sustained growth in its market share.
Critical case due to diverted consumer interest: This case is very important for the client since the registration of the APUESTO.COM trademark has diverted consumers’ interest, and we must ensure that the trademark is declared null, in addition to the counterparty’s bad faith.
Latest development: We are currently waiting for the counterparty to respond to the nullity action.
