https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=275020 Registration of a trade mark at Chennai, by itself, does not confer territorial jurisdiction on the Madras High Court, because cause of action is a bundle of facts and registration is only one relevant component of that bundle. The location of the Trade Mark Registry and the entry on its register may be considered, but they do not alone fix the situs of the mark or establish jurisdiction without further connecting facts. When leave to sue is sought under Clause 12 of the Letters Patent and only part of the cause of action arises within the forum, the Court may apply principles akin to forum conveniens and assess whether the chosen forum is appropriate by considering convenience, evidence, and other connecting factors. en-us Thu, 04 Dec 2014 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 15 Sep 2018 10:05:49 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=275020 Registration of a trade mark at Chennai, by itself, does not confer territorial jurisdiction on the Madras High Court, because cause of action is a bundle of facts and registration is only one relevant component of that bundle.
