Dispute Summary
Smithkline Beecham Plc sued Mr Umeshbhai Patel for trademark infringement, alleging that defendants' use of 'PANAMOL' for pharmaceutical products infringed Smithkline Beecham’s registered trademark 'PANADOL'. The plaintiffs also sought to restrain the defendant from using a similar swirl device used in relation to Crocin. Defendants were served ex parte after failing to be found at their stated addresses.
Outcome / Ruling
The court granted a permanent injunction restraining the defendants from using 'PANAMOL' or deceptively similar marks and reproducing the plaintiff's packaging, while denying relief regarding the swirl device and other claims due to lack of evidence and ex parte service.
