GB 139

Several new routes to protect a trademark were introduced via the Trade Marks Directive (the Directive). These were set out in Article 5(2) of the Directive (89/104, now replaced by 2008/95/EC), but at the time seemed largely similar approaches to addressing trademark infringements. Many of these causes of action are now beginning to distinguish themselves from each other, largely as a result of a series of judgments, some of which are proving controversial. But many questions remain and the distinctions, between, and requirements of, the different causes of action are still at an early stage of development.
