Canadian Trade Mark Applications Maremont Automotive Products, Inc. S.R. 232,388 "GRIZZLY 3ILV3RTI?" S.S. 232.389 "GRIZZLY SYNCR0-32T1
Dear Max:
Thanks for your letter of January 28, 1957.
I am glad you wrote us because we were under the impression that it was your move on the basis of our letter of November 26, 1956.
We called you on the telephone to discuss the matter, but seeing you were out of town, we report aa follows:
The citation of "GRIZZLY 3YNCR0-3ZT" standing in the name of Grizzly Manufacturing Company will have to be brought Into the name of Maremont or cancelled from the Register.
The mark can only be brought into the name of Maremont by either
(a) An Assignment from Grizzly Manufacturing Company which, you have advised us, is not possible because there is no one available who oould execute an Assignment and the company no longer exists, or
(b) By showing, before the Registrar, by documents adequate to prove that Pratt Industries, Inc. actually took over Grizzly. Then, Pratt will have-to assign to Maremont.
In other words, the Registrar will not record the same mark in the name of two different registrants, whether related or not.

(c) Alternatively, we can file a request under section 44 to have the early registration expunged, on the grounds that it is no longer being used. Then, when no reply to the notice is received, the Registrar will expunge the registration. The disadvantage of this procedure is that it takes tine, probably six to eight months.
We would suggest that, if you have documents adequate to prove that Pratt took over Grizzly, you should ship us cer tified copies so we can have them recorded to show Pratt's ownership. Then, an Assignment can be made from Pratt to tfaremont. We should explain that the United States Assignment of the mark is not considered by the Registrar to be sufficient evidence of Canadian ownership.
You ask us if the applications should be filed in the name of Pratt who are the owners of record in the United States. This would depend to a large extent on who is actually using the trade marks in Canada. If Pratt is using the trade marks here, then we recommend that the applications should be in Pratt's name. If Maremont is using the trade marks here, then they could hold the registrations. If both are using the marks, then we would think that the registrations should stand in the name of. the principal, Narenont, and Pratt, the subsidiary, by appointed as registered user.
We trust that the above will give you a basis on which to proceed, but if there is anything further you would like us to do for you, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us again.
Yours very truly,
5nc.
