SILVASTAR USA Corp filed an opposition proceeding (No. 91306488) against Flooret, LLC's SILVAN trademark application with the USPTO Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The opposition challenges the registration of the SILVAN mark across unspecified goods or services. TTAB oppositions are inter partes proceedings that determine whether a mark should proceed to registration.

Flooret LLC as the applicant-defendant must decide whether to defend the application, negotiate a settlement, or abandon the mark. Any company with registered or pending trademarks should review this opposition to assess potential impact on their IP portfolios. TTAB proceedings typically span 12-24 months before final determination.
