Hi, a company already has the phrase 12 hour energy registered on the supplemental registry under class 005 dietary supplements. Their product is a box of pills. Can I get a trademark registered as follows; "12 hour energy" class 032 namely non carbonated fruit flavored beverages, disclaiming exclusive use of the words ;12, hour , energy, except as shown above and in class 032 non carbonated fruit beverages.? Idea here is to define the scope of the trademark as narrowly as possible to make it allowable even though the name already exists in another category (dietary supplements). What do you think? Thanks
