France Wins Legal Ruling Over Rights to 'France.com' Trademark

The French State has emerged victorious in a dispute over ‘France.com’ after the EU General Court rejected a U.S. company’s claim to the trademark. The dispute dates back to August 2014, when Jean-Noël Frydman applied for the figurative EU trademark ‘France.com’, with the words appearing next to an image depicting the French flag and the Eiffel Tower.
