Trademark. He and I applied for the same name and the same category. His trademark is being applied for. Can I still apply? Why?
You can apply, but according to the principle of priority, the Trademark Office will reject it. But I suggest you apply. First, the other party can withdraw the application. Second, if your writing style is very special, you may still be authorized; Third, have you ever applied for a trademark in other countries? If so, you can claim priority.
