  • Modern Romance
    O-226-19 TRADE MARKS ACT 1994 IN THE MATTER OF UK REGISTRATION NO. 3241327 IN THE NAME OF GEOFFREY DEANE AND PAUL GENDLER FOR THE TRADE MARK Modern Romance IN CLASS 41 AND THE APPLICATION FOR A DECLARATION OF INVALIDITY THERETO UNDER NO. 502011 BY ANDROS KYRIAKOU BACKGROUND AND PLEADINGS 1. This case is a dispute between two members of a band over the use of the band’s name. The two members are Geoffrey Deane and Andros Kyriakou; the band is called MODERN ROMANCE. 2. On 4 July 2017, Geoffrey Deane1 (“the holder”) applied for the word mark Modern Romance, for the following services: Class 41: Live performances by a musical band; musical group entertainment services. 3. The application achieved registration on 29 September 2017. On 12 March 2018, Andros Kyriakou (“the cancellation applicant”) applied for a declaration that the mark is invalid. The single ground of invalidation is that the registration offends under Section 5(4)(a) of the Trade Marks Act 1994 (“the Act”) due to the goodwill Mr Kyriakou had acquired in the earlier non-registered mark MODERN ROMANCE since 13 May 1999 in respect of live performances by a musical band and musical group entertainment services. It is claimed that Mr Kyriakou has been performing in a band called MODERN ROMANCE throughout the UK since 1999 and has promoted the band via a website since 2000. Use of the contested mark would amount to a misrepresentation to the relevant public and result in damage to Mr Kyriakou’s reputation and goodwill. 4. Mr Deane filed a counterstatement in which he denies the claims made.

While the perceived benefits of chopped diets include reduced food aggression, it is acknowledged that chopping food is time consuming for keepers and increases the risk of desiccation Article history: and contamination. Given the potential disadvantages of chopped diets, there is a need to evaluate Received: 23 Jun 2017 food presentation in a range of zoo-housed species. To investigate the possible effects on ring-tailed Accepted: 28 Dec 2017 coati (Nasua nasua) behaviour, meals were provided as either chopped or whole for a group housed Published online: 31 Jan 2018 at Beale Wildlife Park, UK. Effects of food presentation were monitored, with particular attention paid to aggression, allo-grooming, food manipulation and activity levels. Surprisingly, analysis revealed a significant decrease in aggression (P=0.046) and a significant increase in food manipulation behaviours (P<0.001) when whole foods were given. Levels of inactivity were not significantly affected by food presentation technique. These results suggest that chopped food may not provide the presumed behavioural benefits in coatis, and that whole food diets may in fact provide greater opportunities to express natural food manipulation behaviours.
