Book Synopsis The Legal Aspects of the Community Trade Mark by : Mark Milford
Download or read book The Legal Aspects of the Community Trade Mark written by Mark Milford and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-03-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a practical guide to the legal aspects of the Community trade mark, which is an intellectual property right created by an European Council Regulation of December 1993, and which entered into force on 1 April 1996. The main attraction of the Community trade mark is that it enables an applicant to obtain and maintain, with only one registration, trade mark protection throughout the 15 Member States of the European Union (rather than having to obtain and maintain the registration of essentially the same trade mark in each of those countries). The Community trade mark system is administered by the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (Trade Marks and Designs) (OHIM), which is an agency of the European Union. The Community trade mark system has been surprisingly successful since its inception; it is expected that there will, by the end of the year 2000, have been approximately 200,000 applications for a Community trade mark. The aim of this book is to describe how the Community trade mark system works and what procedures it follows, as well as to draw attention to issues of potential concern for any Community trade mark proprietor. The text is thus anchored on the European Union Regulations which set out the rules for the Community trade mark system, and then critically analyses how those Regulations have so far been applied in practice. This analysis notably involves an examination of the administrative practices developed by the OHIM and its various divisions in respect of the Community trade mark, including a detailed review of the case law developed through early September 2000 by the Boards of Appeal of the OHIM. As it is possible to challenge decisions of the OHIM before the Court of Justice of the European Communities, this analysis also incorporates a study of the case law developed by that Court either in respect of, or which is otherwise relevant to, Community trade marks.
Book Synopsis European Community Trademark:Commentary to the European Community Regulations by : Miguel A. Baz
Download or read book European Community Trademark:Commentary to the European Community Regulations written by Miguel A. Baz and published by Springer. This book was released on 1997-11-26 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An established trademark indicates quality and provides valuable recognition for trade and sales promotion. Without adequate protection, these essential functions are jeopardized. The need for unification in this area, especially in Europe, can no longer be ignored. The Community Directive and Regulation are the response to this need. This commentary provides the texts of essential legislation and offers an analysis of the Directive and Regulation in their historical context. Coverage includes issues such as: grounds for refusal entitlement registration procedures jurisdiction and procedure in legal actions the impact of the Community trademark on applicants from non-member countries The transformation of the Council Directive and the Commission Regulations into national laws in many Member States of the European Union (EU) enhances the value of European Community Trade Mark in the interpretation and analysis of national European trademark laws. Written by leading European experts in the field, this commentary provides an invaluable tool for practitioners, scholars, and marketing managers in interpreting the Community provisions in this specialized, critical area. It is unique in its coupling of a strong theoretical background with the experience of contributors from diverse legal and practical cultures.
Book Synopsis European Trade Mark Law by : Annette Kur
Download or read book European Trade Mark Law written by Annette Kur and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2016-07-25 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European Trade Mark Law provides a coherent and authoritative commentary on both the substantive and procedural aspects of European trade mark law. It presents an integrated picture of the two major trade mark law provisions at EU level: the Community Trade Mark Regulation (CMTR), which provides for the registration and protection of a Europe-wide mark; and the Trade Mark Directive (TMD), which aims to harmonise national trade mark laws. The book's core focus is the Community texts and case law, and it offers a detailed analysis of the CMTD and TMD, as well as practical discussion of the procedure for registering, maintaining, and challenging a trade mark through the European Trade Mark Office and at the national level. It considers how national laws have been successfully harmonised by the TMD, and where they differ significantly from others in their implementation of the Directive. Written by one of the leading trade mark lawyers in Europe, this is an invaluable reference for both academics and practitioners in this complex and rapidly developing area of law.
Book Synopsis Trade Mark Law in Europe by : Ulrich Hildebrandt
Download or read book Trade Mark Law in Europe written by Ulrich Hildebrandt and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2024-01-16 with total page 750 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade mark law practitioners agree that Ulrich Hildebrandt’s Trade Mark Law in Europe hugely enhances their work. This fourth edition follows the same well-known, intensely practical, time-saving format, with each provision of current law (Directive 2015/2436) reproduced in its original English wording and annotated with relevant passages from all relevant decisions of the European Court of Justice, as well as relevant provisions of the Community Trade Mark Regulation and the national trade mark acts of all Member States implementing the Directive. The author’s expert commentary on each provision expressly marks major changes to previous versions of the Directive, highlights when case law concerning a previous version remains relevant and translates passages that lack an official English text. Among the fundamental questions addressed are the following: When is it possible to register a geographical indication as a trademark? Are colours and sounds capable of registration? When may the reputation of a mark be invoked to protect it? How mundane could a sign be and still claim to be distinctive? When can it be said that there has been no genuine use of a trade mark? Where does the Court’s function theory influence the trademark law? Given a topic or keyword, appendices assist in the quick finding of any provision of the Directive and relevant case law. There is no other resource presenting the original wording of ECJ case law, broken down by specific points of law and directly related on an article-by-article basis to EU and Member State trade mark legislation. As a highly organized presentation of key information, this is an ideal initial tool that makes any research into European trade mark law fast and easy, whether for academic purposes or actual legal practice. Lawyers, in-house counsel, judges, and academics will all welcome this new edition.

Book Synopsis Community Trade Mark Law by : Frank Bøggild
Download or read book Community Trade Mark Law written by Frank Bøggild and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2015-12-23 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction in Europe in 1996 of the Community trade mark (CTM) brought into being a new and independent trade mark system with its own sources of law, its own procedures, and its own administrative and judicial bodies, notably the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (Trade Marks and Designs) (OHIM), the agency designated to process applications for the registration of CTMs. In 2011, OHIM for the first time received 100,000 applications in one and the same year – which was also the year in which the one millionth application was filed. Case law of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) and the European General Court (EGC) on the interpretation of the Trade Mark Regulation and the Trade Mark Directive is – together with decisions of OHIM and its Boards of Appeals – absolutely central to the understanding of Community trade mark law, including the trade mark laws of Member States. This book offers an in-depth scrutiny, categorization, and analysis of this extensive body of case law. Focusing on issues of practical relevance for practitioners, the chapters cover such aspects of Community trade mark law as the following: • OHIM's procedure for registration; • the appeals system (OHIM's Boards of Appeals, the EGC, and the ECJ); • trade mark strategies; • absolute and relative grounds for refusal; • three-dimensional trade marks; • non-registered national trade marks and registration in bad faith; • trade marks with a reputation; • acquired distinctiveness; • trade mark functions and use as a trade mark; • limitations of exclusivity; • nature and extent of genuine use; • grounds for revocation and invalidity; • transfer of trade marks and licensing; • national trade mark courts. Also covered are the pending and proposed amendments to the Trade Mark Regulation and the Trade Mark Directive. This book covers in depth the practical applications of this important and much-used body of law. It will be of enormous value and benefit to company lawyers, attorneys, trade mark attorneys, and anyone else dealing with trade mark law, whether on a Community level or nationally.
Book Synopsis European Trademark Law by : Tobias Cohen Jehoram
Download or read book European Trademark Law written by Tobias Cohen Jehoram and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2010-09-30 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European Trademark Law describes all relevant developments in both legislation and case law, in particular of the Court of Justice, offering not only a succinct introduction to the theory, structure and nature of trademark law, but also insightful suggestions for resolving and answering a host of practical problems. As the authors note, their book provides an ‘overview of trademark law rather than an overview of trademark legislation.’ The authors view the law from different perspectives; they take both the European perspective and the perspective from harmonised national trademark law, in particular as it is in the Benelux countries. Paying particular attention to the implications of the considerable stream of case law that has followed from partially new doctrines set in place by the harmonization process, the book greatly clarifies the workings and interrelations of such factors as the following: situations that did not constitute infringement under former trademark law but do constitute infringement today and vice versa; different types of marks and their particularities; registration and opposition procedures; relevant international treaties; requirements for the mark; grounds for refusal and invalidity; scope of and limitations to trademark protection; use of trademarks in comparative advertising; referential use of trademarks; use of trademarks on the internet; exhaustion of rights, parallel trade; concepts of well known trademarks and trademarks with a reputation; procedural aspects of enforcing trademark rights; how trademark rights are lost.The analysis also covers specific aspects of the trademark right that are related to other legal areas, such as property law, trade name law, the law regarding geographical indications of origin, copyright law, competition law, and product liability. An especially valuable part of the book’s presentation follows the ‘life’ of a trademark from filing the application up to and including its cancellation, revocation or invalidity.

Book Synopsis Special Protection of Trade Marks with a Reputation under European Union Law by : Michal Bohaczewski
Download or read book Special Protection of Trade Marks with a Reputation under European Union Law written by Michal Bohaczewski and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-04-09 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a mark acquires a reputation, it becomes a means of attracting consumers by communicating to them various messages going beyond the indication of commercial origin of goods or services. Thus, trade marks familiar to the general public enjoy a special legal protection regime above and beyond that afforded trade marks in general, allowing them to benefit from enhanced protection against reproduction or imitation detrimental to, or taking unfair advantage of, the distinctive character of the mark or its repute. This richly researched book, the first comprehensive guide to current European Union (EU) law and practice concerned with reputed trade marks, conducts an in-depth analysis of this extended protection provided by Regulation 2017/1001 on EU trade marks and Directive 2015/2436 under which it is mandatory across all Member States. Using a practical approach, focused on identifying and analysing the criteria for infringement of trade marks with a reputation in proceedings before civil courts and in administrative proceedings before the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) or national trade mark offices, the author addresses such elements of the special protection regime as the following: prerequisites for infringement of the right to a reputed mark common to all recognised forms of infringement; how to demonstrate each type of infringement of the right to the trade mark with a reputation (blurring, tarnishment and unfair advantage); proof of reputation; distinguishing the concept of well-known trade mark; legitimate versus questionable justifications of the ‘due cause’ exception within the meaning of EU law provisions; use of a disputed sign falling under freedom of expression; identifying the role of likelihood of confusion under the special regime; and how to prove the existence of a link between the signs in dispute. The author pays detailed attention to the case law of the Court of Justice and General Court of the EU, as well as cases before the EUIPO and national courts. He takes into account research from a number of Member States (plus Switzerland), thus widening prior work in the field from its predominant English-language context. With this book practitioners will confidently approach cases before courts, the EUIPO and national EU trade mark offices involving enhanced protection of trade marks with a reputation. In addition, the book will help judges and trade mark offices examiners to interpret the EU provisions and assess claims regarding such reinforced protection. For scholars and students of intellectual property law, this book will prove a cornerstone volume in the field.

Book Synopsis European Union Trade Mark Regulation by : Gordian Hasselblatt
Download or read book European Union Trade Mark Regulation written by Gordian Hasselblatt and published by Beck/Hart. This book was released on 2018-12-13 with total page 1632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the release of the first edition of this commentary, quite a few important changes have taken place in the realm of EU trade mark law. Most of the reforms proposed in 2013 have now matured into law. By way of Regulation 2015/2424 of 16 December 2015, the CTMR was comprehensively amended and the regulation on the fees payable to the Office repealed. All in all, the reform of the former framework brought about more than 145 amendments. These changes have been codified by Regulation 2017/1001 of 14 June 2017. Needless to say, all changes of a material, procedural or mere terminological nature are commented in detail in the respective context of this profoundly revised second edition.

Download or read book Community Trademark Regulation written by Gordian Hasselblatt and published by Beck/Hart. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 2100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powerful trade marks encapsulate the essential values of a brand. In today's highly competitive markets, trade marks serve as communicators between the businesses on the one hand and the courted clientele on the other. With its unitary nature and equal effect throughout the entire EU, the CTM provides access to more than 500 million consumers. It is therefore no wonder that business and trade have long since recognized the value of the CTM, last but not least because of this geographical reach. Since its inception in 1996, more than one million CTMs have been registered, 30 % of which stemming from applicants outside the EU. It is thus fair to say: The CTMR has proved to be a success story.
