  • Use Requirements for Trademarks- Avoidance of Cancellation Actions for Non-Use
    Use Requirements for Trademarks- Avoidance of Cancellation Actions for Non-Use MARY JUDE V. CANTORIAS1 Introduction Under Philippine law, a trademark right is considered to be a form of property. As an attribute of ownership over such property, the owner of a registered mark enjoys the exclusive right to prevent all third parties not having the owner’s consent from using in the course of trade such mark in relation to the products or services for which it is registered, and in certain cases, prevent altogether the use of such registered mark in relation to entirely dissimilar products or services, where such use would result in a likelihood of confusion. Republic Act 8293 or the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines (IP Code)2 mandates that rights to a mark shall be acquired solely through registration made validly in accordance with its (RA 8293) provisions. In some other jurisdictions however, trademark rights may be established either through “actual use in commerce” or through “registration” with the trademark office or both. Due to the diverse nature of trademark rights enforcement and protection, and its territorial nature, an effort to harmonize, if not unify, the rules through international law came into play. The first successful attempt to treat protection of intellectual property as an item of trade negotiations among nations, and perhaps to establish the minimum requirements for IP rights protection, is the TRIPS Agreement or the Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights, Annex 1-C of the Marrakesh Agreement Establishing the World Trade Organization.3 Article 15.3 of the TRIPS Agreement essentially provides that: 1 Lecturer, Arellano University School of Law.
