Dispute Summary
The Delhi High Court intervened in a trademark dispute, setting aside an Intellectual Property Appellate Board (IPAB) order that had allowed a potentially biased statement by a Senior Examiner to remain on record. The court emphasized that the Registrar must maintain strict neutrality and objectivity when dealing with IP matters under Section 98 of the Trade Marks Act. This judgment reinforces the principle that procedural fairness requires immediate scrutiny of any evidence, especially those provided by registry officials, if they appear to exceed their statutory scope.
