SWOOP Trademark Extension Request - H-E-B vs Dowd
Summary
The USPTO Trademark Trial and Appeal Board granted H-E-B, LP a first 90-day extension of time to oppose Dowd International, Inc.'s SWOOP trademark application. The extension was filed on 2025-12-23 and granted on 2026-04-05 under proceeding TTAB99224828.
What changed
The TTAB granted H-E-B, LP's first 90-day request to extend the time to oppose Dowd International, Inc.'s SWOOP trademark application. This is a routine procedural filing that tolls the deadline for H-E-B to file a Notice of Opposition with the TTAB.
No immediate action is required from other parties. The extension provides H-E-B additional time to evaluate whether to pursue a formal opposition proceeding against the SWOOP mark. If H-E-B decides to oppose, they must file a Notice of Opposition before the new deadline expires.
