The Court of Cassation ordered the Ministry of Industry and Trade to delete a trade name of a grilled food shop that closely resembles the name of a well-known shop registered for over twenty years, in order to prevent confusion or deception of customers. It was established that the new name registered by the new shop owner is similar enough to potentially cause confusion and misleading among customers, which conflicts with the rights of the original trade name protected against unauthorized use. The court emphasized that the protection of trade names aims to prevent exploitation or infringement of rights, and that the transfer of ownership of a name through a transfer agreement includes rights and obligations, along with the right to seek legal protection and compensation for unfair competition. The court concluded by rejecting the appeals submitted, stressing that the similarity between the names and its potential to mislead the public are legal matters it deems within its jurisdiction. The proven similarity supports the decision to delete the name.
