Non-Use Cancellation May No Longer Be Possible


On 9 April 2014, the Turkish Constitutional Court has ruled that Article 42/1 (c), which provides for the non-use of a trademark as one of the grounds of invalidity, is unconstitutional on the grounds that it violated Article 91/1 of the Turkish Constitution.

For detailed information, please see the article on 'Non-use Cancellation of Trademarks may no Longer be Possible in Turkey' from our Silver partner Istanbul Patent & Trademark Consultancy Ltd here.
