Dredging Corporation Of India Limited 2024 LiveLaw (Cal) 30Use Of 'Silk' To Denote Paint's Finish Customary, Can't Be Protected As Trademark: Calcutta High Court Dismisses Berger's Plea Against JSW PaintsCitation: 2024 LiveLaw (Cal) 1Case: Berger Paints India Limited v JSW Paints Private LimitedThe Calcutta High Court recently dismissed an interim injunction application in a suit filed by Berger Paints to restrain JSW Paints from using the term 'SILK' in conjunction with their product range sold under the trademark 'HALO'.A single bench of Justice Krishna Rao held:The use of the expression “SILK” for paint finish is customary in the trade and is not capable of being protected as trademark with respect of paints, emulsions and distempers. The defendant has not applied for the registration of the mark “SILK” and does not intend to market its product under a trade mark “SILK”. The products of the defendant are sold under the mark “HALO”, such as, with the word “Silk” being used only to define the finish/sheen of the paint. By comparison of the two marks, in my view both appears to be substantially different and there is no similarity between both the labels.Wife Making Allegations Of Mental Illness Against Husband's Mother Not 'Cruelty': Calcutta High Court Dismisses Plea For Marriage DissolutionCitation: 2024 LiveLaw (Cal) 2Case: Gopal Ranjan Bandopadhyay @ Gopal Ranjan Banerjee v Smt. Manidipa Banerjee (Talukdar)The Calcutta High Court has recently dismissed an appeal by a husband challenging the decision of the trial court which dismissed his prayer for dissolution of marriage with his wife, granting him a decree of judicial separation instead.The petitioner/husband had alleged that the wife had committed acts of 'mental cruelty' by alleging that the petitioner's mother had a mental illness, misbehaving with her in-laws, and had also deserted the petitioner by taking away their daughter and leaving the matrimonial home.A division bench of Justice Harish Tandon and Justice Madhuresh Prasad held:The issue of mental illness has not been established or proved with any material in the trial. Such allegation, per se cannot be viewed to constitute an act of mental cruelty. There is also nothing on record to show that the petitioner at any time prior to filing of the suit in question had objected to the respondent residing with her parents, or made any efforts to bring her back to the matrimonial home.Lodging False Case U/S 498A IPC Is An Element Of Cruelty By Wife, Cannot Ignore The Same: Calcutta High Court Allows Dissolution Of MarriageCitation: 2024 LiveLaw (Cal) 3Case Name: Poulami Biswas v Shamik BiswasThe Calcutta High Court has recently held that a...
