투명 식품포장디자인의 보호범위와 창작성 ―유럽연합일반법원 2020. 3. 12. 선고 T-352/19 판결을 중심으로― = Protection Scope and Individual Character of Transparent Food Packaging Design ―Focusing on the Decision of T-352/19 Sentenced on March 12, 2020 by The General Court of The European Union―

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This judgment delivered on March 12, 2020 by the General Court of the European Union (TEU) ruled on the validity of food packaging design represented with the food they are supposed to contain. In rejecting appeals against decisions of the European Union Intellectual Property Office that the registered Community design representing ‘packaging for foodstuffs’ was invalid, the General Court has held that the design at issue produced an impression of déjà vu in relation to the earlier design. In reaching its decision, the court rejected applicant’s argument that the scope of the design protection could be extended to the contents of the packaging in question, such as fish, which were visible through the transparent lids. The issue of this ruling is whether only some of the elements indicated can be taken into account against the applicant's will when doing overall impression of the design. The Court accorded particular importance to one part of the design, the packaging, and ruled out another, the foods represented, which had not been explicitly excluded from the protection claimed by the applicant. However, there is a controversy about whether it is possible to distinguish the essential part from the subsidiary part and ignore certain elements in the judgment of individual character.
