Legislator summary

AI generated

The court granted the review of the international trademark 'Previon' for Class 5 products, overturning a previous refusal based on a conflicting national mark. Although the national mark 'Previson' was initially cited as an obstacle, its registration had already been legally rejected with finality. Consequently, the court ruled that the existence of the refused national mark no longer prevented the protection of the international trademark for the specified goods.

SUMÁRIO

Tendo sido negada a protecção da marca internacional Previon apenas para os produtos da classe 5., com fundamento na existência da marca nacional Previson, mas sucedendo que o registo desta marca nacional foi recusado com trânsito em julgado, nada obsta à protecção da dita marca internacional quanto aos produtos daquela dita classe.
