Abstract
Since the release of the first edition of this commentary, quite a few important changes have taken place in the realm of EU trade mark law. Most of the reforms proposed in 2013 have now matured into law. By way of Regulation 2015/2424 of 16 December 2015, the CTMR was comprehensively amended and the regulation on the fees payable to the Office repealed. All in all, the reform of the former framework brought about more than 145 amendments. These changes have been codified by Regulation 2017/1001 of 14 June 2017. Needless to say, all changes of a material, procedural or mere terminological nature are commented in detail in the respective context of this profoundly revised second edition.
The benefits at one glance:
systematic article-by-article commentary on the EUTMR
commentary on measures and remedies under the Enforcement Directive (2004/48/EC)
analysis of the assertion of EUTM rights out of court as well as in litigation in summary and main proceedings in all EU Member States
This commentary is written by practitioners for practitioners "deserving a place on the bookshelf of any professional or student interested in the EU trade mark and design system." António Campinos, Executive Director EUIPO Foreword 2nd ed, June 2018)
About the editor and the authors:
