Redd Solicitors LLP v Red Legal Ltd and Another
“
The question is whether Red Legal acquired an "earlier right" to sue for passing off by the use of the name "RED LEGAL" for residential conveyancing. The dividing line between rights sufficient to give rise to a locality defence under s11(3) and rights sufficient to satisfy a challenge to validity under s5(4) was not explored in argument in any detail. I do not accept that the evidence justifies a locality defence as at 10 th June 2010 which goes any wider than the county of Northamptonshire.
