Summary
The Regulations on the EU trade mark2 and the Community design3 contain specific provisions on international jurisdiction. These provisions are clearly inspired by the provisions of the Brussels I Regulation,4 but differ from them in some respects. The Brussels I provisions deal with any kind of tort, not merely with IP infringement. Could that explain the slightly different language that is used, and is there a coherent approach to all IP infringement cases, irrespective of whether they are based on unitary rights or not?
