4TH ANNUAL JUDGES' SYMPOSIUM


OHIM’s biennial European Trade Mark and Design Judge’s Symposium took place last week on 29 and 30 September. Community trade mark and design judges from the various Member States and from candidate countries, as well as representatives from OHIM and its Boards of Appeal and the European Court of Justice gathered in Alicante to discuss various items relating to CTMs and, for the first time, CDs. The programme included sessions on counterfeiting as it affects Community IP right, co-operation between OHIM and the national courts and controlling the legality of administrative decisions on trade mark and design issues. The UK was represented by Lord Justice Jacob and Geoffrey Hobbs QC (in his capacity as an Appointed Person).

The IPKat looks forward to reading some of the papers, and hopes they’ll be available online soon, as they have been for previous years. Watch this space.

No comments:

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
