In the present case, the Court of Justice annuls the judgment of the General Court by stating that the detriment or the risk of detriment to the distinctive character of the earlier marks cannot be established without adducing the evidence of ‘change in the economic behaviour of the average consumer' (para. 36).
Sodišče je v obravnavanem primeru razveljavilo sodbo Splošnega sodišča in navedlo, da škodovanja ali nevarnosti škodovanja razlikovalnemu učinku prejšnje znamke ni mogoče ugotoviti brez predložitve dokaza o „spremembi ekonomskega ravnanja povprečnega potrošnika“ (točka 36).
While the dispersion of the reputed mark's image and identity in the public's perception is a subjective condition, the change in the economic behaviour of this public is objective.
Razpršitev podobe in identitete znamke z ugledom je v zvezi z dojemanjem javnosti subjektivni pogoj, sprememba ekonomskega ravnanja te javnosti pa je objektivni pogoj.
It cannot be deduced from the mere fact that consumers note the presence of a new similar sign in a way that is likely to undermine the earlier mark's ability to identify the goods for which it is registered as coming from the proprietor of that mark (paras 37 and 39).
Ni ga mogoče zožiti le na dejstvo, da potrošniki opazijo obstoj novega podobnega znaka, kar lahko škodi sposobnosti prejšnje znamke, da proizvode, za katere je registrirana, označuje tako, kot da izvirajo od imetnika navedene znamke (točki 37 in 39).
The General Court should have examined whether any actual change in economic behaviour had occurred, or was likely to occur, on the basis of ‘an analysis of the probabilities and by taking account of the normal practice in the relevant commercial sector as well as all the other circumstances of the case' (para. 43).
Splošno sodišče bi moralo na podlagi „analiz[e] možnosti in ob upoštevanju običajne prakse v upoštevni gospodarski panogi ter vseh drugih okoliščin obravnavanega primera“ proučiti, ali se je dejansko spremenilo ekonomsko ravnanje ali je bila ta sprememba verjetna (točka 43).
Since it failed to do so, the General Court violated Article 8(5) EUTMR.
Ker Splošno sodišče tega ni storilo, je kršilo člen 8(5) Uredbe o blagovni znamki EU.
Reputed for sports clothing and footwear tobacco products, cigarettes, cigars, amongst others
Ugled v zvezi s športnimi oblačili in obutvijo med drugim tobačnimi izdelki, cigaretami, cigarami
The contested application was filed for tobacco and related goods in Class 34.
Izpodbijana prijava je bila vložena za tobak in z njim povezano blago iz razreda 34.
Smoking tobacco is universally considered to be an extremely unhealthy habit.
Kajenje tobaka se na splošno šteje za zelo nezdravo navado.
For this reason, use of the sign KAPPA for tobacco and related goods is likely to prompt negative mental associations with the respondent's earlier marks or associations, conflicting with and being detrimental to their image of a healthy lifestyle (para. 38).
Zato lahko uporaba znaka KAPPA za tobak in z njim povezano blago sproži negativne miselne asociacije na pritožnikovo prejšnjo znamko ali asociacije, ki so v navzkrižju z njeno podobo zdravega življenjskega sloga in ji škodujejo (točka 38).

Reputed for mineral waters Scouring and polishing preparations and substances; pot pourri; incense; incense sticks; room fragrances and articles for perfuming rooms
Ugled v zvezi z mineralno vodo Pripravki in snovi za razmaščevanje in poliranje; dišavne mešanice (potpourriji); kadilo; kadilo (palčke); sredstva in izdelki za odišavljanje zraka
The pleasant notions conveyed generally by mineral water do not mix seamlessly with detergents and scouring preparations.
Prijetna občutja, ki jih na splošno vzbuja mineralna voda, se ne ujemajo najbolje z detergenti in pripravki za razmaščevanje.
Use of marks that contain the word SPA for goods conveying such different connotations is likely to damage, or tarnish, the distinctive character of the earlier mark (para. 101).
Uporaba znamk, ki vsebujejo besedo SPA za blago, ki ima tako različno konotacijo, lahko oškoduje ali očrni razlikovalni značaj prejšnje znamke (točka 101).
‘Mineral water is not pleasantly associated by most consumers with incense or pots pourris.
Večina potrošnikov ne vzpostavi prijetne asociacije med mineralno vodo in kadilom ali dišavnimi mešanicami.
The use, in order to distinguish fragrances and incense, of a mark containing a word (SPA) that Belgian consumers strongly associate to bottled drinking water is therefore likely to damage the attractive and suggestive power that the brand, according to the evidence, currently enjoys' (para. 103).
Uporaba znamke z besedo (SPA), ki jo belgijski potrošniki močno povezujejo z ustekleničeno pitno vodo, za označevanje dišavnih mešanic in kadil lahko zato oškoduje privlačnost in sugestivno moč, ki ju znamka trenutno ima v skladu z dokazi (točka 103).

Reputed for goods in Classes 18 and 25 Scientific, nautical, surveying, weighing, measuring, signalling, checking (supervision), life-saving and teaching apparatus and instruments; amongst others.
Ugled v zvezi z blagom iz razredov 18 in 25 Med drugim znanstveni, pomorski, geodetski, tehtalni, merilni, signalizacijski, kontrolni (nadzorni), reševalni ter učni aparati in instrumenti.
The opponent demonstrated that the prestigious image of its trade marks is linked to the traditional manufacturing method of its fine leather goods, which are handmade by master craftsmen who work only with top-quality raw materials.
Vložnik ugovora je dokazal, da je prestižna podoba njegovih znamk povezana s tradicionalno metodo izdelave usnjenih izdelkov, ki jih rokodelski mojstri izdelujejo ročno samo iz najkakovostnejših surovin.
It is this image of luxury, glamour and exclusivity, combined with the exceptional quality of the product, that the opponent has always striven to convey to the public, as the evidence adduced testifies.
Kot potrjujejo predloženi dokazi, si je vložnik ugovora vedno prizadeval, da bi javnosti prikazal to podobo luksuza, glamurja in ekskluzivnosti, združeno z izjemno kakovostjo izdelkov.
This image would be quite incompatible with goods of a strongly industrial and technological nature, such as electric meters, scientific microscopes, batteries, supermarket cash registers, fire-extinguishing apparatus or other instruments, for which the applicant intends to use its trade mark (para. 28).
Ta podoba bi bila popolnoma nezdružljiva z industrijskim in tehnološkim blagom, kot so električni merilniki, znanstveni mikroskopi, baterije, registrske blagajne, gasilni aparati ali drugi instrumenti, za katere namerava prijavitelj uporabljati svojo znamko (točka 28).
What would be detrimental to the image of its trade marks, which the opponent has carefully fostered for decades, is the use of a trade mark that recalls its own and is applied to goods characterised, in the public's perception, by a significant technological content (whereas a fine-leather article is rarely associated with technology) or as having an industrial origin (whereas fine leather goods are traditionally associated with craftsmanship) (para. 29).
Podobi znamk, ki jo vložnik ugovora skrbno ohranja že več desetletij, bi škodovala uporaba znamke, ki spominja na njegove znamke in se uporablja za blago, ki ima v zavesti javnosti pomembno tehnološko vsebino (medtem ko se usnjeni izdelki redko povezujejo s tehnologijo) ali industrijski izvor (medtem ko se usnjeni izdelki tradicionalno povezujejo z rokodelstvom) (točka 29).
The use of a trade mark that is practically identical to a trade mark that the public has come to perceive as synonymous with fine leather goods of excellent manufacture for technical apparatus or electrical tools of all kinds will diminish its attraction, that is, its reputation, amongst the public that knows and values the earlier trade marks (para. 30).
Zaradi uporabe znamke za raznovrstne tehnične naprave ali električna orodja, skoraj povsem enake znamki, ki jo javnost enači z vrhunskimi usnjenimi izdelki, se bo zmanjšala privlačnost, torej ugled prejšnjih znamk v javnosti, ki te znamke pozna in jih ceni (točka 30).

Razred 21: čistilne priprave in jeklena volna
In its decisions of 18/06/2009 in R 770/20082 & R 826/20082, the Board stated that the risk of detriment to repute can occur where the goods and services covered by the mark applied for have a characteristic or a quality that may have a negative influence on the image of an earlier mark with a reputation on account of the mark applied for being identical or similar to the earlier mark with reputation.
V odločbah z dne 18. junija 2009 v zadevah R 770/20082 in R 826/20082 je odbor navedel, da se lahko tveganje v zvezi z oškodovanjem ugleda pojavi, kadar imajo blago in storitve, označeni z znamko, za katero je vložena prijava, značilnost ali lastnost, ki bi lahko negativno vplivale na podobo prejšnje znamke z ugledom, ker je znamka, ta katero je vložena prijava, enaka ali podobna prejšnji znamki z ugledom.
The General Court confirmed the Board's finding, adding that due to the great similarity between the signs at issue, the strong distinctive character of the Italian mark and its repute in the Italian market, it can be concluded that that there is a link between the signs in conflict - a link that could damage the idea of exclusivity, luxury and high quality and therefore be detrimental to the repute of the Italian mark (para. 68).
Splošno sodišče je potrdilo ugotovitve odbora in dodalo, da je mogoče zaradi velike podobnosti spornih znakov, močnega razlikovalnega značaja italijanske znamke in njenega ugleda na italijanskem trgu, ugotoviti, da je med nasprotujočima si znakoma zveza, ki bi lahko oškodovala pojem ekskluzivnosti, luksuza in visoke kakovosti, s tem pa ugled italijanske znamke (točka 68).
Reputed for organisation of sports competitions Class 9
Ugled v zvezi z organizacijo športnih tekmovanj Razred 9
The Court noted that the opponent had not demonstrated any risk of injury to the reputation of the earlier marks, since it had not indicated how the attractiveness of the earlier marks would be diminished by use of the contested mark on the contested goods.
Sodišče je ugotovilo, da vložnik ugovora ni dokazal tveganja v zvezi z oškodovanjem ugleda prejšnjih znamk, saj ni pojasnil, kako bi se privlačnost prejšnjih znamk zmanjšala zaradi uporabe izpodbijane znamke za izpodbijano blago.
Specifically, it did not allege that the contested goods have any characteristic or quality that could have a negative influence on the image of the earlier marks (para. 68).
Predvsem ni utemeljil, da ima izpodbijano blago značilnosti ali lastnosti, ki bi lahko negativno vplivale na podobo prejšnjih znamk (točka 68).
‘In the present case, SPA and SPA-FINDERS designate very different goods consisting, on the one hand, in mineral waters and, on the other, in publications and travel agency services.
„V zadevnem primeru znamki SPA in SPA-FINDERS označujeta zelo različne proizvode, po eni strani mineralne vode, po drugi strani publikacije in storitve potovalnih agencij.
The Court finds that it is therefore unlikely that the goods and services covered by the mark SPA-FINDERS, even if they turn out to be of lower quality, would diminish the power of attraction of the mark SPA' (para. 49).
Sodišče prve stopnje meni, da je zato malo verjetno, da bi proizvodi in storitve, označeni z znamko SPA-FINDERS, celo če bi bili slabše kakovosti, zmanjšali privlačnost znamke SPA“ (točka 49).
The applicant neither cited, nor a fortiori proved, any characteristic or quality of that kind.
Tožeča stranka ni navedla ali a fortiori dokazala nobene take značilnosti ali lastnosti.
The mere existence of a connection between the services covered by the conflicting marks is neither sufficient nor determinative.
Zgolj obstoj zveze med storitvami, na katere se nanašata nasprotujoči si znamki, ni niti zadosten niti odločilen.
It is true that the existence of such a connection strengthens the probability that the public, faced with the mark applied for, would also think of the earlier mark.
Obstoj take zveze sicer poveča verjetnost, da javnost, ki se sreča s prijavljeno znamko, prav tako pomisli na prejšnjo znamko.
However, that factor is not, in itself, sufficient to diminish the earlier mark's power of attraction.
Vendar pa ta okoliščina sama ni dovolj za zmanjšanje privlačnosti prejšnje znamke.
Such an outcome can arise only if it is established that the services covered by the mark applied for have characteristics or qualities that are potentially detrimental to the reputation of the earlier mark.
Do takega izida lahko pride zgolj, če je dokazano, da imajo storitve, na katere se nanaša prijavljena znamka, značilnosti ali lastnosti, ki bi lahko morebiti škodile ugledu prejšnje znamke.
Such evidence has not been adduced in the present case' (para. 67).
Tak dokaz pa v tem primeru ni bil predložen“ (točka 67).

‘In the present case, on the one hand, it is not possible to attribute from the outset either any specific image to the reputed trade mark or any prima facie evidence of its tarnishment.
V obravnavanem primeru po eni strani ni mogoče vnaprej ugotoviti posebne podobe blagovni znamki z ugledom ali dokazov, ki bi na prvi pogled kazali na njeno očrnitev.
On the other hand, the opponent has confined itself to pleading that “use and registration of the [contested] trade mark will take unfair advantage of the opponent's trade mark”, without giving any evidence or prima facie evidence, even only by way of logical deductions, of such tarnishment.
Po drugi strani je vložnik ugovora sam potrdil, da je navedel, da bosta uporaba in registracija [izpodbijane] blagovne znamke neupravičeno izkoriščala blagovno znamko vložnika ugovora, ne da bi za to predložil kakršen koli dokaz ali dokaz, ki bi na prvi pogled podprl tako očrnitev, tudi samo z logičnimi sklepanji.
On the contrary, the Board finds no antagonism between either the nature or the way of using glassware and wine, such as that the use of the contested mark might tarnish the earlier mark's image.
Odbor ni ugotovil nobenih nasprotij med vrsto ali načinom uporabe steklenine in vina, zaradi katerih bi lahko uporaba izpodbijane znamke očrnila podobo prejšnje znamke (točka 91).

Št. zadeve Pripomba
26/02/2008, R 320/20072, GULLON Mini O2 (3D) / GALLETA (3D) The Board held that the applicant had due cause to represent the series of sandwich-type biscuits in the three-dimensional mark applied for, namely, to indicate to consumers the type of biscuits concerned, as defined by the relevant Spanish legislation.
26/02/2008, R 320/20072, GULLON Mini O2 (3D) / GALLETA (3D) Odbor je odločil, da je imel prijavitelj upravičen razlog za označitev serije piškotov v obliki sendviča s tridimenzionalno znamko, za katero je vložil prijavo, in sicer da bi potrošnikom v skladu z veljavno špansko zakonodajo sporočil, za katero vrsto piškotov gre.
30/07/2007, R 1244/20061, MARTINI FRATELLI (fig.) / MARTINI The Board confirmed that the applicant had two good reasons to use the name MARTINI in the mark applied for: (i) MARTINI is the family name of the founder of the applicant's company, and (ii) a coexistence agreement was signed in 1990.
30/07/2007, R 1244/20061, MARTINI FRATELLI (fig.) / MARTINI Odbor je potrdil, da je imel prijavitelj dva dobra razloga za uporabo imena MARTINI v znamki, za katero je bila vložena prijava: (i) MARTINI je priimek ustanovitelja podjetja prijavitelja in (ii) leta 1990 je bil podpisan sporazum o soobstoju.
20/04/2007, R 710/20062, SPA et al. / CAL SPAS The Board confirmed that the applicant had due cause to use the term SPAS as it corresponds to one of the generic uses of the term ‘spa' as indicated by the Court of First Instance in the judgment of 19/06/2008, T93/06, Mineral Spa, EU:T:2008:215.
20/04/2007, R 710/20062, SPA et al. R 710/20062 Odbor je potrdil, da je imel prijavitelj upravičen razlog za uporabo izraza SPAS, saj ustreza eni od splošnih rab izraza „spa“, kot je navedlo sodišče prve stopnje v sodbi 19/06/2008, T93/06, Mineral Spa, EU:T:2008:215.
23/01/2009, R 237/20081 & R 263/20081, CARLO RONCATO / RONCATO et al. The business affairs of the Roncato family, showing that both parties had the right to use the name RONCATO as a trade mark in the suitcase and trunk sector, were held to constitute ‘due cause' for use of the RONCATO name in the contested trade mark.
23/01/2009, R 237/20081 in R 263/20081, CARLO RONCATO / RONCATO et al. Bilo je odločeno, da so posli družine Roncato, iz katerih je bilo razvidno, da imata obe stranki pravico do uporabe imena RONCATO za znamko v sektorju kovčkov in potovalnih kovčkov, upravičen razlog za uporabo imena RONCATO v izpodbijani znamki.
25/08/2011, B 1 708 398, Posten AB v Česká pošta s.p. It was held that the applicant had due cause to use the figurative element of a postal horn since that device is widely used as a long-standing and historical symbol of postal services (trade mark registrations and internet evidence were submitted showing 29 European countries use the postal horn as a symbol for their postal services).
25/08/2011, B 1 708 398, Posten AB v Česká pošta s.p. Odločeno je bilo, da je imel prijavitelj upravičen razlog za uporabo figurativnega elementa poštnega roga, saj se ta element vsesplošno uporablja kot tradicionalni in zgodovinski simbol poštnih storitev (predložene so bile registracije znamk in spletni dokazi, iz katerih je bilo razvidno, da 29 evropskih držav uporablja poštni rog kot simbol za poštne storitve).
06/07/2012, T60/10, Royal Shakespeare The General Court held that, in order to establish due cause, it is not use per se of the contested trade mark that is required, but a reason justifying use of the trade mark.
06/07/2012, T60/10, Royal Shakespeare Splošno sodišče je odločilo, da se za ugotovitev upravičenega razloga ne zahteva uporaba sporne znamke kot taka, ampak razlog, ki upravičuje uporabo znamke.
In this case, the applicant merely claimed to have ‘demonstrated how and for which product the contested trade mark has been used in the past' but, even assuming that that aspect is relevant, provided no additional indication or explanation.
V tem primeru je prijavitelj trdil samo, da je predstavil, kako in za kateri izdelek se je sporna znamka uporabljala v preteklosti, vendar tudi ob domnevi, da je ta vidik pomemben, ni zagotovil dodatnih podatkov ali pojasnil.
Accordingly, the Court held that the applicant had not established due cause for such use.
Sodišče je v skladu s tem odločilo, da prijavitelj ni dokazal upravičenega razloga za tako uporabo.
25/03/2009, T21/07, Spaline, EU:T:2009:80 The General Court held that there was no due cause, since it had not been shown that the word ‘spa' had become so necessary to the marketing of cosmetic products that the applicant could not reasonably be required to refrain from use of the mark applied for.
25/03/2009, T21/07, Spaline, EU:T:2009:80 Splošno sodišče je odločilo, da ni upravičenega razloga, saj ni bilo dokazano, da je beseda „spa“ postala tako nujna za trženje kozmetičnih proizvodov, da od prijavitelja ne bi bilo mogoče razumno zahtevati, da ne uporablja znamke, za katero je vložil prijavo.
The argument that ‘spa' was of descriptive and generic character for cosmetic products was rejected, since such character does not extend to cosmetic products ‘but only to one of their uses or destinations'.
Trditev, da je beseda „spa“ opisna in obča za kozmetične proizvode, je bila zavrnjena, saj se ta lastnost ne nanaša tudi na kozmetične proizvode, ampak samo na eno od njihovih rab ali namenov.
16/04/2008, T181/05, Citi The General Court held that the use of the trade mark Citi in just one EU Member State (Spain) could not constitute due cause because, first, the extent of geographical protection of the national trade mark did not correspond to the territory covered by the trade mark applied for, and, second, the legal validity of that national registration was subject to dispute before the national courts.
16/04/2008, T181/05, Citi Splošno sodišče je odločilo, da se uporaba znamke Citi v samo eni državi članici (Španiji), ne more šteti za upravičen razlog, ker, prvič, obseg geografskega varstva nacionalne znamke ne ustreza ozemlju, ki ga znamka, za katero je bila vložena prijava, pokriva, in, drugič, ker se pravna utemeljenost nacionalne registracije izpodbija pred nacionalnimi sodišči.
By the same token, the ownership of the domain ‘citi.es' was held to be irrelevant.
Iz istih razlogov tudi ni bilo upoštevno lastništvo domene „citi.es“.
10/05/2007, T47/06, Nasdaq; confirmed 12/03/2009, C320/07 P, Nasdaq The Court held that the only argument put forward before the Board of Appeal in respect of due cause (namely, that the word Nasdaq had been chosen because it is an acronym for ‘Nuovi Articoli Sportivi Di Alta Qualità') was not convincing, noting that prepositions are not generally included in acronyms.
10/05/2007, T47/06, Nasdaq; potrjenao s sodbo12/03/2009, C320/07 P, Nasdaq Sodišče je odločilo, da edina trditev, predstavljena odboru za pritožbe v zvezi z upravičenim razlogom (tj. da je bila beseda Nasdaq izbrana, ker je kratica izraza „Nuovi Articoli Sportivi Di Alta Qualità“), ni prepričljiva, saj predlogi navadno niso del kratic.
23/11/2010, R 240/20042, WATERFORD STELLENBOSCH (fig.) / WATERFORD Contrary to the applicant's arguments that there was due cause because the term WATERFORD was allegedly very common in names and trade marks, the Board held that the applicant had failed to give any evidence of market coexistence of WATERFORD marks or to submit any element from which it would be possible to infer that the relevant general public (in the UK) considers Waterford as a commonplace geographical name.
23/11/2010, R 240/20042, WATERFORD STELLENBOSCH (fig.) / WATERFORD V nasprotju s prijaviteljevimi trditvami, da upravičen razlog obstaja, ker naj bi bil izraz WATERFORD zelo pogost v imenih in znamkah, je odbor odločil, da prijavitelj ni predložil nobenih dokazov o soobstoju znamk WATERFORD na trgu in nobenih elementov, iz katerih bi bilo mogoče povzeti, da je Waterford po mnenju upoštevne splošne javnosti (v Združenem kraljestvu) splošno zemljepisno ime.
To the extent that such arguments play a role in assessing the uniqueness of a sign in order to establish whether the necessary link exists in the mind of the relevant public between the signs at issue, the Board held that, nevertheless, once such uniqueness had been established, such arguments cannot serve as due cause.
Čeprav se takšne trditve upoštevajo pri presoji edinstvenosti znaka za ugotovitev obstoja potrebne povezave med spornima znakoma v zavesti upoštevne javnosti, je odbor kljub temu odločil, da se takšne trditve, ko je takšna edinstvenost potrjena, ne morejo šteti za upravičen razlog.
