Being 'contrary to law' and 'bad faith' are grounds, but I can't see either ground being invoked in prima facie examination to the mark 'Kennedy' for whiskey.That is,before or after Charles Kennedy 'confessed'.<BR/><BR/>If the mark was 'Charles Kennedy likes a tipple'you could expect objection, but not because the UK Registry are all Lib Dem supporters,it would be most likely because it ain't a trade mark (section 3(1)(b))!<BR/><BR/>Finally, I'd like to 'scotch' (geddit, hee hee!)the myth that no famous names can be registered in the UK. They can. If Charles Kennedy wanted to register his full name for a new brand of whiskey I can't personally see any problem. <BR/><BR/>Good God - I've suddenly realised I'm writing this at 9.00 pm on a Friday night.

For example, before the former leader of the Lib Dems admitted to his much rumoured drinking problem, might his supporters have been able to make any objection to a registration for "Kennedy" whisky, since the mere surname might be ambiguous enough to avoid a "famous personality" rejection?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-35174277912817536772007-02-16T08:53:00.000+00:002007-02-16T08:53:00.000+00:00An alternative ground of objection may well have b...An alternative ground of objection may well have been that, in relation to clothing in particular, it just isn't a trade mark ('devoid of distinctive character' in the EU), it's just political comment. <BR/><BR/>Of course this is a far more boring ground of objection than being 'scandalous'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
