The Community Trade Mark (Designation of Community Trade Mark Courts) Regulations 2005
The Regulations amend the Community Trade Mark Regulations 1996 and the Trade Marks (International Registrations Designating the European Community, etc.) Regulations 2004. The amendments correct a failure to include a provision in the 1996 Regulations expressly designating the courts of “second instance” which hear appeals from the designated courts of “first instance”, as required by Article 91(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No. 40/94 on the Community trade mark (“Regulation 40/94”). The oversight was repeated when the 1996 Regulations were amended by the 2004 Regulations to extend the number of designated first instance courts.
