Summary judgment was refused because the defendants' evidence disclosed an arguable triable issue that the trade mark was registered in bad faith based on the 2006 share transfer agreement, alleged obligations not to register by the transferor, the transferee's continuing interest in a related company, and evidence of the transferor's involvement with the plaintiff; further discretion favoured refusal given related passing off claims and delay by the plaintiff.
