Rocket Dog Brands LLC v Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (Trade Marks and Designs) OHIM T-338/12, [2013] All ER (D) 131 (Sep)

According to settled case-law, the risk that the public might believe that the goods or services in question had come from the same undertaking or from economically-linked undertakings constituted a likelihood of confusion. According to the same case-law, the likelihood of confusion should be assessed globally, according to the perception which the relevant public had of the signs and the goods or services in question, account being taken of all factors relevant to the circumstances of the case, including the interdependence between the similarity of the signs and that of the goods or services covered.
