U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 1066. Interference; declaration by Director
Upon petition showing extraordinary circumstances, the Director
may declare that an interference exists when application is made
for the registration of a mark which so resembles a mark previously
registered by another, or for the registration of which another has
previously made application, as to be likely when used on or in
connection with the goods or services of the applicant to cause
confusion or mistake or to deceive. No interference shall be
declared between an application and the registration of a mark the
right to the use of which has become incontestable.
