Intellectual Property Infringement
I have Sir Stelios of Easy Jet fame and his group of solicitors, claiming copywrite infringement, literary infringement, intellectual property infringement and so on and to this extent demanding handing over of our company domains and cessation of trading with threats of injunctions, damages, costs, etc, against ourselves for the continued use of our company domain Easygulet.com and Easygulet.co.uk
Despite the designs of Easygulet.com and EasyGulet.co.uk, its marketing and content, which bears no correlation or shares by way of any mark or services offered online, by way of its logos, colour scheme, or any such inference to that of the easy group plc; That may also suggest its operations in anyway bear reference too is supported by, or is part of the easy group plc and any of its registered product offerings/brand names and thus unlikely to cause by way of confusion to the consumers of the United Kingdom and Globally.
To this extent the easy group’s lawyers have written a number of times to us over a period of 7 months with continued threats of legal action unless we relinquish our web domains to them along with signed undertakings.
We have never made any reply to their letters in the past and would like to know if we are duty bound by any statutory UK law or by the rules of
PRACTICE DIRECTION – PRE-ACTION CONDUCT to make reply in anyway to their claims against us and if in not doing so could or will harm any defence that we would raise in reply to court actions taken if any.
I would also like to know if it is customary for the firm of lawyers acting for the claimants, to now also be calling us by phone and requesting us to make answer to their claims.
I would greatly appreciate your feedback and advice
