Some reminders ...

Members of MARQUES, the Association of European Trade Mark Proprietors, enjoy an excellent facility as part of their membership package: they have a searchable online database of some 1,300 trade mark rulings drawn from the European Court of Justice, the Court of First Instance, OHIM and the many national/regional courts around Europe itself. If you are a MARQUES member, don't forget to check the database out from time to time: you never know what you might find in it.

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.
