Apple like they always do will contest this by stating since 2008 IGB has not used the iPhone trademark, and that the 5-year deadline ended in 2012. The National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI) has got 60 days to respond to Apple’s challenge with a verdict at the end of it.
IGB Electronica already applied for the iPhone trademark back in 2000 and it was finally granted in 2008 and in Brazil it states that whoever applies first for a trademark name will have to use it within 5-years. The latest news reports that Brazilian regulators have ruled that Apple does not have exclusive rights to use the “iPhone” trademark in the country.
Apple can continue to sell iPhone-branded handsets in Brazil, which is good news.
