Hof van beroep te Brussel
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant: Loutfi Management Propriété Intellectuelle SARL
Defendants: AMJ Meatproducts NV, Halalsupply NV
Operative part of the judgment
Article 9(1)(b) of Council Regulation (EC) No 207/2009 of 26 February 2009 on the Community trade mark must be interpreted as meaning that, in order to assess the likelihood of confusion that may exist between a Community trade mark and a sign which cover identical or similar goods and which both contain a dominant Arabic word in Latin and Arabic script, those words being visually similar, in circumstances where the relevant public for the Community trade mark and for the sign at issue has a basic knowledge of written Arabic, the meaning and pronunciation of those words must be taken into account.
