Trademark suit by Subway

I welcome the decision by the court to reject the trademark suit launched by Subway against a small entrepreneur. See http://www.todayonline.com/Singapore/EDC120419-0000048/Subways-suit-against-Subway-Niche-dismissed

I am glad that the judge found that the plaintiff did not suffer any commercial loss due to the use of the word "Subway" as the new of another outlet.

In the past, there has been too many cases of legal suits for infringement of trademarks, copyright and patent. It is refreshing to know that the unjustified cases cannot succeed in court.
