Protection of trademark rights
If you encounter someone misusing your trademark in relation to similar goods or services, you can prevent the violator from using your trademark, force him to withdraw from circulation and destroy counterfeit goods, remove the trademark from advertising, and also seek from him a compensation up to 5 million rubles.
From a legal point of view, there are three main methods of dealing with violators:
— civil law;
— criminal law;
— administrative legal.
The civil law method of protecting the right to a trademark involves applying to the Intellectual Property Court (IPC). But before filing a claim, you must send a claim letter to the violator, describing in detail the situation with the violation of your trademark rights. The claim must be sent to the legal address of the offending company. After receiving such a letter, the violator has 30 days to respond. Only after this period you have the right submit a claim to the court.
In addition to going to a court, you can use administrative legal methods of dealing with violation of the exclusive rights to a trademark - apply the Federal Antimonopoly Service and the Rospotrebnadzor. The Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS) protects copyright holders from unfair competition and misuse of a trademarks in advertising. When a violation of the law is detected, the FAS carries out raids against violators with the confiscation of counterfeit products and the imposition of a fine.
The use of someone else's or a similar trademark leads to the fact that consumers can confuse products in the market. Therefore, the copyright holder has the right to apply to the Rospotrebnadzor as a body protecting consumer rights and ask to verify the legality of the actions of the violator. Based on the results of the inspection, the Rospotrebnadzor draws up an administrative protocol and submits the case materials to the court.
The application of the criminal law method of protecting rights, which implies contacting the police , takes place if the illegal use of the trademark has been committed repeatedly or caused a major damage (in the amount of more than 250,000 rubles). As a rule, this method is used when a conflict arises between large companies.
