  Australian trademark law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Australian trade mark law is based on the Trade Marks Act 1995 (Cth), which is administered by IP Australia, an Australian government agency within the Department of Industry, Tourism and Resources.
The legislation does not codify the law of trade marks in Australia; as a common law jurisdiction, a trade mark owner may also (for example) seek to protect its rights through legal proceedings for passing off.
Section 17 of the Trade Marks Act defines a trade mark as "a sign used, or intended to be used, to distinguish goods or services dealt with or provided in the course of trade by a person from goods or services so dealt with or provided by any other person".

 Trademark
The basic policy of trademark law is to prevent the public from being deceived and allow the producer of a product to have a specific product associated with a specific manufacturer thereby preventing dilution of the owner's mark.
Another underlying purpose of trademark law is protecting the owner’s investment in the quality of the goods or services sold under the mark known as dilution.
This does not mean that trademarks registered in one jurisdiction automatically become registered in another jurisdiction (although such a system is in place in the European Union), but it does mean that many trademark laws are shared by various countries.

 US Trademark Law - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks
Although trademarks are the oldest form of intellectual property and have been protected at common law for decades, they were the last to be protected by a federal statute in the US, and infringement cases were very rare until the late 19th century.
The rule against generic trademarks is particularly important for holders of famous marks, because their marks may lose protection if they become common nouns or adjectives in the public eye.
Trademark law has a contributory infringement doctrine similar to those under patent law and copyright law.

Trademarks are not granted for one-off fixed terms (unlike a patent for example); they are valid as long as they are actively in use (and usually require a renewal fee to be paid to the registry every few years).
One principle of Trade Mark law in various jurisdictions in Europe is that of 'wrongful threats', which is designed to prevent large corporations from 'bullying' smaller companies.
This use of trademark law has lead to several high profile court decisions, and the creation of the ICANN Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy and other dispute policies for specific countries (such as Nominet UK's DRS).
