Dispute Summary
The appellant, a pharmaceutical manufacturer, appealed against the Assistant Registrar's refusal to register the trade mark SEREN. The appeal argued that since the product was a prescription drug, there was no likelihood of confusion. However, the IPAB found the marks (SEREN and SERENE) to be patently identical phonetically and structurally, concluding that the likelihood of deception was imminent.
