Das Prinzip der Überörtlichkeit im Unionsmarkenrecht Buchkatalog

»The EUTM Principle of More than Mere Local Significance«: The relationship between the EUTMs and national trademarks has always been controversial. The EUTM principle of coexistence requires that the requirements for genuine use and enforcement of the EUTM meet a certain standard of significance that justify the EU-wide effect of the EUTM and allow national trademarks to coexist with the EUTM in a balanced relationship. The minimum of this standard of significance is the legal term »of more than mere local significance«, Art. 8 (4) EUTM Directive.
