The Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) confronts its traditional case law to the particular frame of pharmaceutical trademarks’ genuine use appreciation.
Traditionally, case law established a relative tolerance to the condition of genuine use since the latter can be recognized for goods and services whose commercialization is not effective yet, but under way (CJEC, Ansul, March 11th, 2003, C-40/01).
Besides, it has already been specified that only obstacles that present a relation sufficiently direct with a trademark making impossible or unreasonable its useand that are independent from the will of the trademark’s owner can be qualified as “proper reasons” for non-use.
