Tootsie Roll Industries filed Opposition No. 91299872 against DPGC Group's trademark application for 'CONNECT THE DOTS' with the TTAB. The case was filed on June 23, 2025, and the current docket entry dated April 3, 2026, indicates that plaintiff filed a motion to suspend proceedings with consent, pending ongoing settlement negotiations between the parties.

No immediate action is required from third parties or the public. Both parties appear to be engaged in settlement discussions, which is a routine resolution pathway in TTAB opposition proceedings. The motion to suspend halts procedural deadlines while negotiations proceed. If settlement fails, the opposition will resume with standard discovery and trial schedules.
