‘Counterfeit goods’ or ‘pirated goods’: joined Cases C446/09 and C495/09 - The EU Court of Justice has ruled that goods coming from a non-member State which are imitations of goods protected in the European Union by a trade mark right or copies of goods protected in the European Union by copyright, a related right or a design cannot be classified as ‘counterfeit goods’ or ‘pirated goods’ within the meaning of those regulations merely on the basis of the fact that they are brought into the customs territory of the European Union under a suspensive procedure. Those goods may, on the other hand, infringe the right in question and therefore be classified as ‘counterfeit goods’ or ‘pirated goods’ where it is proven that they are intended to be put on sale in the European Union.

Spain: from 1/1/2012 further reduction of the statutory maximum payment periods in commercial transactions.

Spanish Law 15/2010, which entered into force in July 2010, laying down measures against late payment in commercial transactions, provides that mandatory maximum term of payment in commercial transactions shall not exceed 60 days, and shall start on the date of receipt of goods or provision of services.
