IPKAT TRANSLATION WATCH: ANYONE OUT THERE ITALIAN AND KEEN ON BEER?

Today Advocate General Tizzano delivered in opinion in Case C-245/02 Anheuser-Busch. Sadly, the decision is only available in Italian, German, Portuguese and Swedish. According the the ECJ Diary, the following issues were raised in the opinion:

Interpretation of Community law concerning trade marks - Whether the TRIPs Agreement applies to an alleged infringement commenced before the entry into force of the Agreement and continuing after that date - Interpretation of Article 16 of the TRIPs Agreement - Collision of a trade mark and a trade name - Interpretation of the reference to existing prior rights - Whether protection of the trade name under Article 8 of the Paris Convention included and if so under what conditions - "Budweiser" and "Bud"

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.
