MCM Trademark Opposition Extension Request

McDonald's Corporation obtained a 90-day extension of time to oppose Mogame Inc.'s MCM trademark application before the USPTO Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The extension request was originally filed on December 30, 2025, and formally granted on April 12, 2026, giving McDonald's additional time to evaluate and potentially challenge the trademark application.

For affected parties, this extension signals McDonald's active interest in the MCM mark and indicates that a formal opposition proceeding may follow. Mogame Inc. should anticipate receiving a formal Notice of Opposition and should prepare responsive arguments if McDonald's proceeds with the opposition. Trademark applicants facing potential opposition from major brand owners should monitor TTAB proceedings and consider settlement discussions to avoid costly litigation.
