It has been named &quot;National Taiwan University&quot; for many years. As a result, it was sued by National Taiwan University for infringement. The first instance verdict was that NTU won the case. However, the two sides reached a settlement during the second instance. However, NTU required that the cram school must completely remove its sign and website. , the Chinese and English characters of National Taiwan University can no longer be used. The reporter actually returned to the scene and found that the names of the promotional light boxes and marquees of the supplementary education class had been changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Fuda Law Firm<a href=\"https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/en\/ip\/\">Trademark lawyer<\/a>Li Yusheng stated that when the trademark application was initially submitted, the competent authority conducted a review. At that time, it was likely deemed unlikely that the cram school would be mistaken for the same institution as National Taiwan University, which is why the trademark application for &quot;NTU Cram School&quot; was approved. Whether a cram school can use a university&#039;s name as a trademark depends primarily on the overall assessment of whether it might cause public confusion, which serves as the standard for trademark approval. Trademark infringement refers to the use of a design that is identical or similar to another&#039;s trademark, causing public confusion. In cases of trademark infringement, there may be criminal liability of up to three years imprisonment, as well as civil liability for damages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Trademark-related news:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/en\/blog\/trademark-dispute\/\">Lawyer Li Yusheng explains the Ginwu Soup Curry trademark dispute, trademark authorization, franchise contract and signboard use and other related legal issues and dispute resolution methods<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/en\/blog\/tai-da-trademark\/\">The cram school &quot;National Taiwan University&quot; infringed its name.
