Rechtsreferendarin
Audi AG v OHIM, Court of First Instance of the European Communities (CFI), Case T-70/06, 9 July 2008
OHIM refused registration as a Community trade mark of the words VORSPRUNG DURCH TECHNIK in the name of Audi AG for goods and services in Classes 9, 14, 25, 28, 37–40, and 42 on the grounds that the mark was devoid of any distinctive character. Audi's action for annulment of this decision was dismissed by the CFI.
