One, more than 50 hot soup stores use? three-word defendant

Recently there are a lot of stores on the door plate of the ? Easy Town? The three words were withheld, the reason for the matter is because the Jiaozuo City, more than 50 Hu spicy soup store did not go through the Xihua County Free Town Hu spicy soup association's permission, they use the unauthorized use of the ? the trademark of "Easy Town". These families used the ? Easy Town? The stores have received a court summons in the past few days, said infringement to be compensated, which makes them feel very puzzled, their own stores open a good reason why the defendant, in fact, as early as 2003, Xihua County Free Town Hot Spot Soup Association has been? The town? The three words registered trademark

Two, Xihua County Free Town Hot Spot Soup Association responded

In the first few years, they did not misuse of the Hot Spot Soup Shop? Easy Town? three words to manage, all lead to a lot of stores are using this name as a trademark, this operation led to the loss of their trademark interests, all from now on they will be unified to protect their rights. Merchants want to continue to use this brand, you have to pay a thousand dollars a year dues, or else you have to pay compensation of 30 to 50 thousand.

Three, how do you think about this matter

I think Xihua County at large town hu chili soup association they are trying to cut leeks, this practice is very unethical, today's at large town hu chili soup why can be famous, the main reason is because there are so many stores at the same time in the use of the name, to him to play a publicity effect, if there is not the existence of these stores, I'm afraid not many people will know about the existence of these stores, and the publicity effect is very important. I'm afraid that not many people will know the free town Hu spicy soup, now famous should not in turn also sue them, which if any one person is afraid to be very difficult to accept. Now you have to pay to use it, so many stores simply withhold the three words, even if they don't use them they can still do business. In my opinion one of the main reasons why a store is popular or not is whether the food inside is good or not.
