Re: Nice write up! Excellent fact checking!
"Trademarks are field-specific
I am perfectly entitled to use FedEx as a trading name as long as it is not in any field that Fedex holds their trademark registration in.
ie: I can be Fedex plumbing and heating, there's zero problem with that at all, and FedEx attempting to bring a trademark dispute or "passing off" action would have a hell off a job doing so unless I was using their logos - in fact, attempting to do so may well find them branded as vexatious if they kept bringing actions against businesses with similar names in unrelated fields."
I don't think Stelios/EasyGroup got that memo.
