Lođăng nhập 8xbetn Assists a Well-Known Japanese Children’s Picture Book Publisher in Winning Trademark Invalidation Reversal in the First Instance Trial
Recently, attorneys Cindy QUAN, Jianjun FU, Yan ZHANG, and Yuan ZHANG from Lođăng nhập 8xbetn Law Firm successfully represented Poplar Publishing Co., Ltd. in the first instance trial, overturning the decision in a trademark invalidation lawsuit against Crocodile International Holdings Limited.

Before the proceeding, Crocodile International filed an invalidation request against the disputed trademark. The China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) held that the disputed trademark and the cited trademark were similar, and thus invalidated the disputed trademark.

Finally, the Beijing Intellectual Property Court ruled in favor of Poplar Publishing, holding that the disputed trademark “” and the cited trademark of Crocodile International are not similar. The court overturned CNIPA’s invalidation decision. Moreover, the court recognized that Poplar Publishiđăng nhập 8xbetnd the tyrannosaurus image in You Look Yummy had gained considerable recognition, allowing the relevant public to associate the image uniquely with Poplar Publishing.
