Pleas in law: Infringement of Article 8(1)(b) and (4) of Council Regulation No 40/94 as the Board of Appeal wrongly decided that the applicant's non registered trade mark did not confer on him the right to prohibit the use in the United Kingdom of the trade mark applied for and as the Board of Appeal wrongly applied the test to establish likelihood of confusion.
