French court finds that Facebook fan page doesn't infringe TM
Report here from Inlex IP Expertise: "The court considered that using the 'PLUS BELLE LA VIE' trademark on a public Facebook page dedicated to this French TV series did not constitute an infringement, in that the trademark was not used in a normal course of business, as web users did not use it for professional or business purposes." A welcome result, with perhaps less fuss than would be required under the supposedly more robust defenses in the US.
