The PRC Trademark Office will decide registrability under PRC law but will not determine whether the defendant breached the Hong Kong settlement agreement; the Hong Kong court must interpret the agreement under Hong Kong law and decide breach; because the issues are not identical and the PRC tribunal will not decide the contractual breach, a stay is not warranted and the defendant's application is dismissed.
