C.R.S. Section 7-70-103
Effect of filing statement of trademark registration

(1)

A statement of trademark registration filed by the secretary of state shall be notice of the claims made in the statement of trademark registration from and after the date and time the statement of trademark registration is filed.

(2)

Except as provided in subsection (1) of this section, filing of a statement of trademark registration does not confer upon the registrant any substantive right or create any remedy not otherwise available. All substantive rights and remedies created by the laws of this state with respect to trademarks are created exclusively by common law.

(3)

Except as provided in subsection (1) of this section, filing of a statement of trademark registration does not enlarge or otherwise affect rights with respect to the trademark that are created by the common law of this state or any other laws. The lack of filing of a statement of trademark registration does not impair or otherwise affect such rights.

(4)

This article does not confer the right to use the phrase “registered in the United States patent and trademark office”, the abbreviation “reg. U.S. pat. & tm. off.”, or any other abbreviation of such phrase or variant thereof, or the letter R enclosed within a circle, or ® in connection with a trademark with respect to which a statement of trademark registration has been filed by the secretary of state.
