I was under the assumption that the decision of non-infringement would be EU-wide, with the High Court acting as an EU Design Court. Now I see today that the appeal court in Düsseldorf has upheld a preliminary injunction on an EU wide basis against the same product in view of the same registered design. Can anyone with more knowledge of the matter please explain?<br /><br />Thanks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-2803723132006387662012-07-12T09:50:49.137+01:002012-07-12T09:50:49.137+01:00Just phoning in to express my appreciation for a g...Just phoning in to express my appreciation for a great post from Meldrew.

Thanks for that laugh. <br /><br />On the "corpus" of designs in this field, I wonder, is this offshore island Decision from EWHC a better quality "roadmap" for OHIM's use down in Spain than the "preliminary" maps (analysed here by Colin Birss) already provided by courts at the European core. <br /><br />For example, see para 91 for a clog-up in the two instances at The Hague as to what "Stevenson" discloses. See para 90 for an elementary failure of logic at two instances in Doozeldorf, and see para 91 for Colin Birss respectfully disagreeing with the lot of them. Is this not all rather sad?MaxDreinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-89806453616506983472012-07-10T07:49:03.857+01:002012-07-10T07:49:03.857+01:00"They are not as cool.
