KOESTLER,INC. DEFENDANT

COMPLAINT

JURY TRIAL DEMANDED

Plaintiffs Mark J. Shapley, Mary B. Shapley, and Shapley's, Inc. (collectively, the

"Plaintiffs") files this Complaint against Defendant Koestler, Inc. ("Koestler"), alleging as

follows:

Introduction

1. Mark and Mary Shapley (the "Shapleys") opened Shapley's Restaurant, also

known as Shapley's, in Ridgeland, Mississippi in 1985, and immediately became known for

providing the highest quality steaks and seafood in the state. Thirteen years later, in 1998,

Plaintiff Shapley's, Inc. entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Defendant, and, as part

of that agreement, Shapley Development, LLC ("Shapley Development') leased the building

where the restaurant was located (868 Centre Street, Ridgeland, Mississippi) to Defendant for an

initial term of ten years, with the option of renewal through June of 2018. In the Asset Purchase

Agreement, Plaintiff Shapley's, Inc. sold Defendant its furniture, fixtures, equipment, and

inventory, as well "the exclusive right to use the name `Shapley's' or `Shapley's Restaurant'

within a 50 mile radius of Jackson, Mississippi for a term be inning on the date of fthe]

A~reen:ient and ending on the date the Lease is terminated" or if Koestler "defaults on ... the

Lease and such default is not cured[.]" Ex. A, APA at p. 1 (emphasis added).
 2. Plaintiffs own the "Shapley's" service mark, and Defendant does not have any

right to use the mark following the expiration of the Lease. Nonetheless, Defendant fraudulently

and inappropriately obtained a federal registration for the mark and, upon information and belief,

fully intends to continue to use the name beyond the term of the Lease. The term of the Lease

ends on June 30, 2018, and Defendant's right to use the name terminates with it. Upon

information and belief, Defendant intends to open a restaurant in the space at Renaissance at

Colony Park in Ridgeland, Mississippi that currently houses Ruth's Chris Steak House on or

around May 1, 2018 and plans to call it "Shapley's." Accordingly, Plaintiffs seek declaratory and

injunctive relief regarding use of the "Shapley's" mark, as well as an order cancelling or

transferring ownership ofthe registration obtained by Defendant.

3. Plaintiffs demand trial by jury on all issues so triable.

The Parties

4. Mark J. Shapley and Mary B. Shapley are residents of Madison County,

Mississippi.

5. Shapley's, Inc. is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of

Mississippi, with its principal place of business at 125 Woodmont Way, in Ridgeland,

Mississippi.

6. Koestler, Inc. is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of

Mississippi, with its principal place of business at 868 Centre Street in Ridgeland, Mississippi,

and may be served with process on its registered agent Scott Koestler at that address.

Facts Common to All Claims for Relief

The Origins ofthe Restaurant and the 1998 Asset Purchase Agreement

10. In 1985, the Shapleys opened the steak and seafood restaurant Shapley's in

Ridgeland, Mississippi, providing restaurant and bar services under the "Shapley's" service mark

{the "Mark"). Shapley's, Inc. was incorporated three years later, in 1988, with the Shapleys as

the sole shareholders, and Plaintiffs continued providing restaurant and bar services under the

Mark.

11. In August 1997, the Shapleys formed Shapley Development, LLC. Shapley

Development owns the Ridgeland, Mississippi property and building at 868 Centre Street,

Ridgeland, Mississippi, where the restaurant was and is now located.

12. In 7uly 1998, Shapley's, Inc. and Defendant entered into an Asset Purchase

Agreement (the "APA") because "[Shapley's, Inc.] desired] to sell to [Defendant], and

[Defendant] desired] to purchase from [Shapley's, Inc.] the Purchased Assets (as defined below)

according to the terms and conditions ofth[e] Agreement." Ex. A,APA at p. 1 (emphasis added).

3
 13. The "Basic Transaction" section ofthe APA states, in part:

A. ~ale_a~ed ~arGhase of Assets. At the Closing, effective as ofthe Purchase Date,

Steer will sell and comreyto Buyer,and Buyer will purclr~e and acceptfrom_Sel~ec,

mat estate'~1'b~:piu+chas~lbY
"~ 8i~yex oz.~~ld by~:eltet

See Ex. A, APA at § II.A., p. 2 (highlights added). In other words, Shapley's, Inc. sold and

Defendant purchased "only the Purchased Assets." Id. "No other assets of the Seller ... [were]

purchased by Buyer or sold by Seller." Id.

14. The APA defines "Purchased Assets" as "the assets described in Schedule 1.L.

hereof." See Ex. A, APA at § I.L. Schedule 1.L. identifies the following "Purchased Assets":

Schedule ]. X..

Promissory I`Tobc or the Isase and such default is not eiaodder the terns of sorb agreements.

See Ex. A, APA at Schedule 1.L. (highlights added). In sum, the Purchased Assets included: (1)

furniture; (2) fixtures; (3) equipment; (4) inventory; (5) and the exclusive right to use the Mark

within a 50 mile radius of Jackson, Mississippi "for a term beginning on the date of [the]

Agreement and ending on the date the Lease is terminated." Id. (emphasis added).

4
 15. "Purchased Assets," as defined and used throughout the APA, refers to the assets

described in Schedule 1.L. The parties did not list the Mark as a "Purchased Asset." Instead, the

APA describes the "Purchased Asset" as "the exclusive right to use" the Mark in a limited area

for a limited time. See Ex. A, APA at Schedule l.L. The term of the Lease ends on June 30,

2018, and Defendant's exclusive, limited right to use the Mark ends with it. See Ex. B, Lease at

¶2; Ex. C, First Amendment at ¶ A. If Defendant purchased the Mark in its entirety, as it

contends, Defendant would not need to also purchase the exclusive right to use the name within a

50 mile radius of Jackson for a term beginning on the date of the APA and ending when the

Lease terminates; Defendant would have the absolute right to use the Mazk whenever and

however it wanted and for as long as it deemed fit.

16. The APA states that "[t]he Purchase Price shall be allocated among,the Purchased

Assets as set forth on Schedule 2.0 of this Agreement." See Ex. A, APA at § II.C, p. 2(emphasis

added). Schedule 2.C. to the APA, an Allocation Agreement, concerns the allocation of the

purchase price for tax purposes. The Allocation Agreement acknowledges that the parties entered

into the APA "whereby Buyer agreed to purchase certain assets from Seller upon the terms and

conditions set forth therein[.]" See Ex. A, APA at Schedule 2.0 at 2 (emphasis added). The

Allocation Agreement states that as to the "certain assets" purchased under the APA,"the Parties

agree that the Purchase Price ... shall be allocated as follows:

c~oaw~ii~ si,aiz,~oo.00
Equipm~nt 228,300.00
Inventory ~n.nan.00
TOTAL 4'!_ 691 000.00

5
 1'1'he term "Go~awill" includes the fc,llowi.rg: the value of khe
Noncompete Agreement of even date herAwith executed by Mark 5hapley
and Mary shapley; the going concern value of 5hapley's Restaurant;
and the value of any and all other "amortizable section 197
irt~ngiblc~" as defined in ~ 197 of the InL- ern~~l. Revenue Cocle of
1386, us amended.

Id. at 3, n. 1. Section 197 of the Internal Revenue Code states that "section 197 intangible"

means, in part: goodwill; going concern value; or "any franchise, trademark, or trade name." 26

U.S.C. § 197(d)(1)(A),(B), and (F).

17. The allocation set forth in the Allocation Agreement is subject to and dependent

upon the definition of"Purchased Assets;" it does not define "Purchased Assets." Therefore, the

"Goodwill" referenced in footnote 1 of the Allocation Agreement—defined as "the value of the

Noncompete Agreement," "the going concern value," and the "amortizable section 197

intangibles"—would only relate to the Shapleys' noncompete obligation and the "Purchased

Assets" identified on Schedule 1.L., including: "[t]he exclusive right to use the name `Shapley's'

or `Shapley's Restaurant' within a 50 mile radius ofJackson, Mississippi for a term beginning on

the date of this Agreement and ending on the date the Lease is terminated[.]" See APA at

Schedule 1.L. Thus, when the "Purchased Assets" provision and the Allocation Agreement are

read together, they provide that, for tax purposes, the goodwill allocation included, among other

things, the intangible assets associated with Defendant's right to use the Mark within SO miles of

Jackson for the term of the Lease. Section 197 cannot be read in a way that would expand the

Purchased Assets to include the sale of the Mark in its entirety. To do so would render the

exclusive rights listed in subparagraph (b)of Schedule I.L. meaningless.

18. For these reasons, it is clear that the "Purchased Asset" was the exclusive right to

use the Mark in a limited area for a limited amount oftime.

,:~
 The Lease ofthe Property at 8b$ Centre Street. Ridgeland. Mississ~ni

19. Under the APA,Defendant received an exclusive license to use the Mark within a

50 mile radius of Jackson, Mississippi "for a term beginning on the date of[the] Agreement and

ending on the date the Lease is terminated." See Ex. A, APA at Schedule 1.L.(emphasis added).

20. Regarding the Lease of the restaurant property at 868 Centre Street, Ridgeland,

Mississippi, the APA states:

A . At the nosing,Buyer will ~ceoa~e and deliver,and salter will eaceauts ar

caiue the owners ofthe MealProperty m execute and cleliv~r, the Y.ease.'

See Ex. A, APA at §III, p. 3(highlights added).

21. The Lease executed by Shepley Development and Defendant pursuant to the APA

states:

2. ~.The primary test ofthis Lease sbe]l comme~ace on July d 1,1998 and shall
expire on Jane 30,200& Tenant shalt have the riglst to renew this Lease for one add~nional
wnsecutive teem oftan yeazs beginning on July 1,?A08 and expiring on Jame 30,2018 by giving

notice as provided begin to Laztdlord before December 31,2007,(The pxiaoaty~ tee and

renewal teem are sometimes herein collectively °Tenn'.

See Ex. B, Lease at ~2.

22. Effective February 1, 2008, Shepley Development and Defendant entered into a

First Amendment to Lease. See Ex. C, First Amendment. The First Amendment states, in part:

7
 A Section 2.ofthe Lease is hereby deleted isits~a nd x~plac~ed with the
fnl~,pwiag:

See id. at ¶A. Therefore, pursuant to the First Amendment to Lease, the Lease will terminate on

June 30, 2018, and Defendant's exclusive, limited right to use the Shapley name terminates with

it. ld.

Defendant's Registration and Plaintiffs'Petition to Cancel the Registration

23. Shortly after the execution of the First Amendment, Defendant instituted plans to

usurp exclusive ownership in the Mark for itself.

24. Notwithstanding the Plaintiffs' prior and rightful ownership of the Mark,

Defendant filed a federal trademark application to register "Shapley's" for "restaurant and bar

services" on August 5, 2008 (Application Serial No. 77/539,217)(the "Application"). See Ex. D,

Application. Without providing any notice and without seeking Plaintiffs' permission,

Defendant's President, Scott Koestler, signed a declaration with the Application, declaring

Defendant was the sole owner ofthe Mark. Specifically, the Declaration stated:

The undersigned, being hereby warned that willful false statements and
the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under 18
U.S.C. Section IOOI, and that such willful false statements, and the like,
may jeopardize the validity ofthe application or any resulting registration,
declares that he/she is properly authorized to execute this application on
behalf of the applicant; he/she believes the applicant to be the owner of
the trademark/service mark sought to be registered, or, if the
application is being filed under 15 U.S.C. Section 1051(b), he/she believes
applicant to be entitled to use such mazk in commerce; to the best of
his/her knowledge and belief no other person, firm, corporation, or
 association bas the right to use the mark in commerce;either in the
identical form thereof or in such near resemblance thereto as to be likely,
when used on or in connection with the goods/services of such other
person, to cause confusion, or to cause mistake, or to deceive; and that all
statements made of his/her own knowledge are true; and that all
statements made on information and belief are believed to be true.

Id. (emphasis added).

25. The United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") refused registration

of the Application based on the fact that "Shapley's" is primazily a surname. See Ex. E, USPTO

Refusal to Register. To overcome the USPTO's refusal to register, Defendant filed a response

(the "Response") contending "Shapley's" had acquired distinctiveness, i.e. had become

distinctive of the services through Defendant's substantially exclusive and continuous use of

"Shapley's" in commerce for at least the five years immediately before December 1, 2008 (the

date of Defendant's response). See Ex. F, USPTO Response. The Response included the same

Declaration quoted above, which was also signed by Mr. Koestler. ld.

26. Defendant obtained a registration for the Mark on March 31, 2009 (Registration

No. 3597904)(the "Registration").

27. On August 29, 2014, Defendant filed a Declaration of Use andlor Excusable

Nonuse of Mark in Commerce under Section 8. See Ex. G, Maintenance Declaration. That

Declaration stated, in part:

The owner, Koestler, Inc. ... is filing a Declaration of Use and/or Excusable
Nonuse of Mark in Commerce under Section 8.

For International Class 043, the marts is in use in commerce on or in connection

with all goods/services, or to indicate membership in the collective membership
organization, listed in the existing registration for this specific class: Restaurant
and bar services; or, the owner is making the listed excusable nonuse claim.

The owner is submitting one(oT more) specimens) showing the mark as used in
commerce on or in connection with any item in this class, consisting of a(n)
business card and menu and product label bearing the mark.

G~
Id.(emphasis added).

28. On September 11, 2017, Mark Shapley filed a Petition to Cancel the Registration

before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board ("TTAB") of the USPTO. On November 1, 2017,

Plaintiffs filed an Amended Petition to Cancel the Registration arguing that the Registration

should be cancelled because Defendant obtained the Registration by fraud and because the

Registration falsely suggests a connection with Plaintiffs and consists of the names of living

individuals without their consent. Defendant filed a motion to dismiss, which is pending before

the TTAB.

The End ofthe Lease and the Parties'Plans

29. As stated above, the Lease —and Defendant's right to use the Mark —will

terminate on June 30, 2018, as will a Noncompete Agreement signed by Mark and Mary

Shapley. See Ex. A, APA at Schedule 1.H.

30. In the summer and fall of 2017, Plaintiffs began hearing rumors that instead of

attempting to renegotiate or extend the Lease, Defendant intends to open a restaurant in another

location and continue using the name Shapley's.

31. On or about November 1, 2017, Mark Shapley sent a letter to Scott Koestler

expressing an interest in discussing the possibility of a new lease and use agreement and also

pointing out that the parts of the APA that provided for anon-compete and provided an exclusive

license to Defendant to use the name "Shapley's" or "Shapley's Restaurant" within a 50 mile

radius of Jackson, Mississippi, will expire upon the expiration ofthe Lease. Mr. Koestler did not

respond.

10
 32. On or about January 26, 2018, Mr. Shapley sent Mr. Koestler a notice to vacate

the leased property by June 30, 2018 and to carefully and thoroughly adhere to all the

components and conditions ofthe Lease. Mr. Koestler did not respond.

33. Upon information and belief, Defendant intends to open a restaurant on or around

May 1, 2Q18 in the space at Renaissance at Colony Park in Ridgeland, Mississippi that currently

houses Ruth's Chris Steak House and plans- to call it "Shapley's."

34. Plaintiffs seek declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as an order cancelling or

transferring ownership of the Registration obtained by Defendant. Specifically, Plaintiffs seek a

declaratory judgment that, under the APA,(1) Plaintiffs own the "Shapley's" Mark and (2)

Defendant does not have any right to use the "Shapley's" Mark following the expiration of the

Lease. Plaintiffs further seek an order enjoining Defendant from using the "Shapley's" mark

following the expiration of the Lease. Alternatively, Plaintiffs seek a declaratory judgment that

they have the right to use their own last name in the name of any new restaurant they may open.

Count I —Declaratory Jud meat

35. Plaintiffs reallege and incorporate by reference the above allegations.

36. Shapley's, Inc. and Defendant entered into the APA because "[Shaptey's, Inc.]

desired] to sell to [Defendant], and [Defendant] desired) to purchase from [Shapley's, Inc.] the

Purchased Assets (as defined below) according to the terms and conditions of th[e] Agreement."

Ex. A, APA at p. 1 (emphasis added). The "Basic Transaction" section ofthe APA states, in part:

A Sala and Parahase o Assets. At tI~e Closlag, effec~ve as of the Purchase Date,

See Ex. A, APA at § II.A., p. 2 (highlights added). Thus, Shapley's, Inc. sold and Defendant

purchased "only the Purchased Assets[,]" and "[n]o other assets of -the Seller ... [were]

purchased by Buyer or sold by Seller." Id.

37. "Purchased Assets" are defined as "the assets described in Schedule 1.L. hereof."

See Ex. A, APA at § I.L., p. 2. Schedule 1.L. identifies the following "Purchased Assets":

See Ex. A, APA at Schedule 1.L.(highlights added).

38. The Mark itself was not identified as a "Purchased Asset." Rather, the "Purchased

Asset" was "the exclusive right to use" the Mark "for a term beginning on the date of [the]

Agreement and ending on the date the Lease is terminated." See Ex. A, APA at Schedule 1.L.

That exclusive, limited right terminates with the Lease on June 30, 2018. See Ex. B,Lease at ¶2;

Ex. C,First Amendment at ¶ A.

39. Accordingly, Plaintiffs seek and are entitled to a declaratory judgment holding(1)

Plaintiffs own the "Shapley's" Mark; and (2) Koestler does not have any right to use the

"Shapley's" Mark following the expiration ofthe Lease.

12
 40. Alternatively, Plaintiffs seek a declaratory judgment holding that on the date the

Lease is terminated, the limitation on Plaintiffs' use of the Mark within a 50 mile radius of

Jackson is lifted and Plaintiffs have the right to use their own last name in the name of any new

restaurant they may open.

Count II —Injunctive Relief

41. Plaintiffs reallege and incorporate by reference the above allegations.

42. Defendant's use or proposed use of the Mark following the expiration of the

Lease is likely to cause substantial injury to Plaintiffs, and Plaintiffs are entitled to injunctive

relief and to recover damages, costs, and reasonable attorneys' fees.

Count III —Cancellation ofthe Registration and

Civil Liability Under 15 U.S.C. &§ 1064(3), 1119, 1120

43. Plaintiffs reallege and incorporate by reference the above allegations.

44. Despite the Plaintiffs' prior and rightful ownership of the Mark, Defendant filed

the Application to register the mark "Shapley's" for "restaurant and bar services" on August 5,

2008(Application Serial No. 77/539,217). See Ex. D,Application.

45. Without providing any notice and without seeking Plaintiffs' permission,

Defendant's President, Scott Koestler, signed a declaration with the Application, declaring

Defendant was the sole owner ofthe Mark. Specifically, the Declaration stated:

The undersigned, being hereby warned that willful false statements and
the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under 18
U.S.C. Section 1001, and that such willful false statements, and the like,
may jeopardize the validity of the application or any resulting registration,
declares that he/she is properly authorized to execute this application on
behalf of the applicant; he/she believes the applicant to be the owner of
the trademark/service mark sought to be registered, or, if the
application is being filed under 15 U.S.C. Section 1051(b), he/she believes
applicant to be entitled to use such mazk in commerce; to the best of
his/her knowledge and belief no other person, firm, corporation, or
association has the right to use the mark in commerce, either in the

13
 identical form thereof or in such near resemblance thereto as. to be likely,
when used on or in connection with the goods/services of such other
person, to cause confusion, or to cause mistake, or to deceive; and that all
statements made of his/her own knowledge are true; and that all
statements made on information and belief are believed to be true.

Id. (emphasis added).

46. The USPTO refused registration of the Application based on the fact that

"Shapley's" is primarily a surname. See Ex. E, USPTO Refusal to Register.

47. To overcome the USPTO's refusal to register, Defendant filed its Response

contending "Shapley's" had acquired distinctiveness, i.e. had become distinctive of the services

through Defendant's substantially exclusive and continuous use of"Shapley's" in commerce for

at least the five years immediately before December 1, 2008 (the date of Defendant's response).

See Ex. F, USPTO Response. The Response included the same Declaration quoted above, which

was also signed by Mr. Koestler. Id.

48. Defendant obtained a registration for the Mark on March 31, 20Q9 (Registration

No. 3597904)(the "Registration")

49. On August 29, 2014, Defendant filed a Declaration of Use and/or Excusable

Nonuse of Mark in Commerce under Section 8 signed by Mr. Koestler. See Ex. G, Maintenance

Declaration. That Declaration stated, in part:

The owner, Koestler, Inc. ... is filing a Declaration of Use and/or Excusable
Nonuse of Mark in Commerce under Section 8.

For International Class Q43, the mark is in use in commerce on or in connection

with all goods/services, or to indicate membership in the collective membership
organization, listed in the existing registration for this specific class: Restaurant
and baz services; or, the owner is making the listed excusable nonuse claim.

The owner is submitting one(or more) specimens} showing the mark as used in
commerce on or in connection with any item in this c}ass, consisting of a(n)
business card and menu and product label bearing the mark.

14
Id.(emphasis added).

50. Defendant knew at the times the Application and the Response were filed that

Defendant was not the owner ofthe Mark.

51. USPTO personnel issued the Registration pursuant to Defendant's declarations

that the facts in the Application and the Response were txue. The identification ofthe owner was

material to the grant ofthe Registration.

52. Defendant misrepresented its ownership interest in order to intentionally deceive

the USPTO so the Registration would be issued to Defendant.

53. The Application would have been refused registration but for Defendant's false

assertions.

54. The Registration also falsely suggests a connection with Plaintiffs. It is the same

as Plaintiffs Mark and Mary Shapley's names and would be recognized as such. Plaintiffs own

the Mark, but are not connected with Defendant beyond the trademark license and Lease.

Plaintiffs' names are of sufficient fame that when the Registration is used, a connection with

Plaintiffs is likely to be made by someone considering purchasing the services.

55. Also, because, in the Application, Defendant sought to register a mark comprised

of the names of particular living individuals, Trademark Act Section 2(c)(15 U.S.C. §1052(c))

required Plaintiffs Mark and Mary Shapley's written consent to registration of the mark as a pre-

condition to such registration. No such consent was provided by Plaintiffs Mark or Mary

Shapley. Plaintiffs Mark and Mary Shapley's surname is associated with the Registration as

being used in connection with bar and restaurant services. Moreover, Plaintiffs Mark and Mary

Shapley are so well known, the public reasonably assumes the connection, and Plaintiffs Mark

15
and Mary Shapley have been publicly connected with the business in which the Mark is being

used by Defendant.

56. By virtue of the foregoing, Plaintiffs have been, and will be, damaged by the

ISSUI?/19A1LING UA'1'E: t I/2?/2008

"Il~c undersigned exfiminin~ attorney has revicwccl the abuv~-referenced application, in accordance ~ti~ith section 2.61 of the "fr~~dcmark Rules of
Practice, 37 C.I.R. ~~' 2.G1 (~Q08), antl has determined the following:

E
 NO CONFLICTING MARKS

The Office records have been searched and no similar registered or pending mark has been found that would bar registration under Section 2(d)
of the Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1052(d)(2003). Trademark Manual of Examination Procedures § 704.02(5th ed. 2007).

REGISTRATION REFUSAI~PRIMARILY A SURNAME

Applicant filed a use-based application under Section 1(a) oC the Trademark Act,. 15 U.S.C. § 1051(a), to register the designation
"SHAPLEY'S" for use in the sale and advertising of services classified in International Class 43, to wit, "restaurant and bar services," on
August 5, 2008. Applicant submitted the date of December 31, 1985, as the date it first used the asserted mark and the date of first use of the
asserted mark in commerce in connection with the identified services.

Registration is refused, pursuant to Section 2(e)(4) of the Trademark Act, because the proposed mark, SHAPLEY'S, is primarily merely a
surname, albeit in possessive form. 1 S U.S.C. § 1052(e)(4); TMEP § 1211.

The determination of whether the primary significance of the designation ai issue is that of a surname to the relevant public is based on the facts
made of record. In re Yeley, $S U.S.P.Q.2d 1150,(TTAB 2007); see, e.g., In re Elabltssements Darry et Frls, 759 F.2d 15, ]7-18,22S U.S.P.Q.
652,653(Fed. Cir. 1985); see TMEP §~ 1211, 1211.01.

It is well established by our reviewing authority that "the addition of an apostrophe `s' to the [surname] does nothing to change the surname
character of the term." /n re Woo(ley's Petite Suites. 18 U.S.P.Q.2d 1810, 1812 (7'TAB 1991); see, e.g., !n re Lewis Cigar Mfg. Co., 98
U.S.P.Q. 265, 266(C.C.P.A. 1953); see TMEP § l211.01(b)(v).

In /n re Benthin Management GmbH, 37 U.S.P.Q.2d 1332(TTAB 1995), the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board ("Board") identified five
factors to consider in determining whether a mark is primarily merely a surname:

(1) Whether the surname is a rare surname;

(2) Whether anyone connected with the applicant uses the mark as a surname;
(3) Whether the term has any recognized meaning other than as a surname;
(4) Whether the mark has the structure and pronunciation of a surname; and
(5) Whether the mark is sufficiently stylized to remove its primary significance from that of a surname.

Id. at 1333-34; see TMEP § 1211.01. The fifth factor is not relevant when the mark is in standard character form.

There is no per se rule as to the kind or amount of evidence necessary to make out a prima facie showing that a term is primarily merely a
surname. This question must be resolved on a casea£`byaE`c~sis. See. e.g., In re Monotype Corp. PI,C, 14 U.S.P.Q.2d 1070(T7'AB 1989); In
re Pohang Iron &Steel Co., Ltd., 230 U.S.P.Q. 79(TTAB 1986). The entire record is examined to determine the surname significance of a
term. The following are examples of evidence that is generally considered to be relevant: telephone directory listings; excerpted articles from
computerized research databases; evidence in the record that the term is a surname; the manner of use on specimens; dictionary definitions ofthe
term and evidence from dictionaries showing no definition of the term. TMEP § 1211.02(a).

In the instant case, Applicant has applied to register the mark,"SHAPLEY'S," comprised entirely in standard characters without design, for
"restaurant and bar services."

Substantial evidence, attached and excerpted below, demonstrates that the primary significance of SHAPLEY is primarily merely a surname to
the general and purchasing public. Said evidence establishes the surname significance of SHAPLEY, as the name is listed 335 times as a
surname in a nationwide directory of names t'rom current credit reporting agencies. See evidence excerpted below, randomly selected from
LexisNexisTM,Public Records Library, Surname Search. In addition, there is evidence that general public has been sufficiently exposed to the
term SHAPLEY to view it as primarily merely a surname. See attached ]nternet evidence and evidence Trom LexisNexisT"'~Iexis Library, US
Newspapers and Wires File.

Consequently, since the primarily significance of Applicant's mark to the purchasing public is primarily merely that of a surname, the mark is
refused registration on the Principal Register.

Although the examining attorney has refused registration on the Principal Register absent the amendments noted below, Applicant may respond
to the refusal to register by submitting evidence and arguments in support of registration.

REGISTRATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2(F~ACQUIRED DISTINCTIVENESS

The record indicates that Applicant has continuously used the proposed mark in commerce since at least December 31, 1985; therefore,
Applicant may seek registration on the Principal Register under Section 2(n based on acquired distinctiveness. To amend the application to
Section 2(~ based on more than five years of continuous use, Applicant should also submit the following written statement claiming acquired
distinctiveness, if accurate:

T'hc mark has bccomc distincUvc of the services through Ap~~licsint's substantially cxclusi~~c and continuous use in commerce for
at Icast the fi~~c nears invnedi~itch~ before the date of this st~itcmcnt.

Applictini must verify this st~itement with an affidavit or a signed dcclar~tion under Rule 2.20 or 2.33. 37 C.F.R. ~ 2.41(b): see 'I'MIiP
y 1212.05(4).
