Unsuccessful attempt to participate in the reputation of mark PANNÓNIA

The Hungarian mark PANNÓNIA used for cheese is well-known, an opinion poll made a few years ago resulted that it is known by 77 p.c. of the Hungarian population.
This was probably the motivation of a competitor, called Tolle, to file a device mark with the word element TOLLE-PANNÓNIA, also for cheese.
Despite the opposition filed by the owner of the mark PANNÓNIA the sign was registered.

This request should be filed within three months following the last day of the sixth month from the due date, and it should be accompanied by the payment of the fee with 100 % surcharge.
