Not completely...

If you have proof that you used it before the other person did,and
that you have/had an intent to trademark it,etc.. (and other fact-
ors),you may be able to contest it.There are alot of details involved
in the whole thing,and you can usually e-mail people at the USPTO
site to get information on things.
