The company owner of fast food restaurants Burger King filed suit against Talco Aktiengesellschaft (Netherlands) and Elvis-Telecom, who have registered domain burgerking.ru in 2000.
Burger King opened his first restaurant in Russia during the month of December 2009. It accuses the two companies that want to benefit from the use of the domain, while infringing on the mark Burger King.
Most likely the company will win the case because it owns a trademark in Russia since 1994.
Moreover, according to Russian legislation Burger King may receive compensation in the amount of 5 million rubles, or 1 177 452 euros.
