Pleas in law and main arguments
The appellant submits that the contested judgment should be annulled on the following grounds:

— |

the Court of First Instance, when rejecting the second plea in law, wrongly viewed the trademarks at issue as confusingly similar and thus, infringed Article 8 Section 1 b) CTMR; |
— |
the Court of First Instance, when rejecting the second plea in law, infringed Article 135 Section 4 of the Rules of Procedure of the Court of First Instance by not taking into account the supportive evidence as annexes to the court action before it; |
