A request for a trial to revoke the registration of a service mark that seeks the revocation of the registration of the service mark on the ground that the registered service mark of this case was not used.
(2) Article 73(1)3 of the former Trademark Act (wholly amended by Act No. 14033, Feb. 29, 2016; hereinafter the same) provides that “The registered service mark of this case is subject to the application for trademark registration filed after this Act enters into force,” and Article 73(1)3 of the former Trademark Act (wholly amended by Act No. 14033, Feb. 29, 2016; hereinafter the same) provides that “The registered service mark of this case is subject to the application for trademark registration filed after this Act enters into force,” and the registered trademark of this case is C before the enforcement date of the amended Trademark Act. Thus, Article 73(1)3 of the former Trademark Act (wholly amended by Act No. 14033, Feb. 29, 2016; hereinafter the same) shall apply to this case.
Therefore, the Korean Intellectual Property Tribunal’s determination by applying Article 119(1)3 of the current Trademark Act is erroneous, but since Article 73(1)3 of the former Trademark Act and Article 119(1)3 of the current Trademark Act are substantially identical, such error does not adversely affect the outcome of the trial decision.
Pursuant to the above, the decision of this case was rendered that the trademark registration should be revoked.
