TRADE MARKS ACT 1994 No. 156 of 1994 - SECT 61
Trade mark similar to well-known trade mark
61. The registration of a trade mark may be opposed on the ground that:
(a) it is substantially identical with, or deceptively similar to, a trade
mark that, before the filing date in respect of the application for
the registration of the first-mentioned trade mark, had acquired a
reputation in Australia; and
(b) because of the reputation of that other trade mark, the use of the
first-mentioned trade mark would be likely to deceive or cause
confusion.
