The court of appeal upheld the court's decision on the illegality of the FAS decision based on the results of an unscheduled inspection of the legislation of the Russian Federation on the c contracting procurement field.
A Plaintiff filed a claim for early termination of the the trademark of the client of «A.Zalesov & Partners», registered in relation to goods of classes 01 and 05 of the International Classification of Goods and Services, due to non-use. We managed to prove the Plaintiff's lack of interest in early termination of the trademark in relation to goods of both classes, as well as the wide recognition of the client's trademark, as a result of which the Russian IP Court ruled to refuse to satisfy the claims in full.
«A.Zalesov & Partners» challenged the decision of the FAS of Russia to recognize the client's actions on the introduction of a medicinal product with the INN «Osimertinib» into civil circulation as unfair competition and infringing article 14.5 of the Competition Law, as well as the order to transfer income in the amount of 566,951,059 rubles to the federal budget and achieved cancellation thereof.
An unremarkable case at first glance, which, nevertheless, is a clear indication that sometimes the daily routine work of overcoming obstacles to registering a trademark during examination requires a creative approach and a lot of effort, and also confirms that a large number of opposed signs is not always a reason to stop the fight for a trademark, even if at first glance the option of applying for a letter of consent seems to be the most reliable or the only promising option for overcoming the refusal, but for some reason the choice is not made in its favor.
