Sky v Skykick
[2018] EWHC 155 (Ch)
Key Principle
An overly broad trade mark specification (e.g. 'computer software') may lack the clarity and precision required and may be applied for in bad faith where the applicant had no intention to use the mark across the full breadth of goods and services claimed; on infringement, the SKY marks were infringed, but the validity questions warranted a reference to the CJEU.
