Förfarandemissbruk eller verklig etablering - vad avgör?

EU-domstolen har i sin praxis utvecklat principen om förfarandemissbruk. Principen innebär ett förbud mot missbruk av EU-rätten. För att principen ska bli tillämplig krävs att ordalydelsen i viss bestämmelse följts men att resultatet strider mot bestämmelsens syfte.

In order to apply the principle requires that the wording of a certain provision have been followed but the outcome is contrary to the purpose of that provision. It is also required that the purpose of the action taken was to achieve this resu

Benämningen av personer på löpsedlar : perspektiven genus och socialgrupp med exemplen Aftonbladet och Dagens Nyheter

Denna information speglar då verkligheten, men faktum är att informationen eller språket även präglar och reproducerar verkligheten.

Tvångslicensiering av upphovsrätter

Tvångslicensieringar av upphovsrätter har kallats kontroversiella eftersom de går emot immaterialrättens grundläggande intressen avseende att innehavaren erhåller en ensamrätt vilken denne/denna själv bestämmer och förfogar över. Vid en tvångslicensiering måste en innehavare av en upphovsrätt, mot sin vilja ingå avtal med en konkurrent som vill få tillgång till upphovsrätten.
