By PHILIP MUYANGAMore by this AuthorA company challenging the withdrawal of its trademark says it was not given an opportunity to be heard before the decision was made. Uwin Investments Africa Company Ltd, whose solar electrical equipment has been detained by authoritites, is seeking to have its expunged trademark reinstated. Through lawyer Edgar Washika, the company says the Anti Counterfeit Agency (ACA) failed to consider relevant factors before seizing its goods. However, the registrar argues that the firm, having been aware that the trademark was in contention, should not have imported the goods. Through lawyer Eunice Njuguna, the registrar told the court that the office followed the law in revoking the company’s trademark.
