IPKAT IN JAPAN; OHIM OPPOSITION GUIDELINES

Changes to OHIM Opposition Guidelines

The OHIM Examination Guidelines are being revised and OHIM is inviting comments by 30 September 2006. Six main issues are up for discussion:

* procedural matters
* identity
* global assessment
* similarity of goods and services
* similarity of signs
* proof of use.
The IPKat reckons that it’s about time that the Guidelines on dilution were revised too.

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.
