Sarung Tinju Everlast Sungkurkan Merek Bandung

31 - August - 2014

Anda pernah memperhatikan sarung tinju yang digunakan petinju kelas dunia seperti Mike Tyson dkk? Di sarung tinju tersebut tertulis Everlast, yaitu merek sarung tinju tersebut. Tapi hati-hati, ada yang palsu di pasaran.

Merek Everlast dipromosikan oleh petinju-petinju legendaris bertaraf internasional seperti Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield dan George Foreman. Selain di Indonesia, Everlast juga terdaftar di berbagai belahan dunia lain seperti di AS, negara-negara Benelux, Panama, Portugal, India, Lebanon, Honduras, Singapura dan Guatemala.

Di Indonesia terdaftar di Ditjen Haki dengan nomor merek IDM00120922 tertanggal 11 Mei 2007, IDM000176005 tertanggal 10 September 2008 dan IDM00265078 tertanggal 5 Oktober 2009.

Meski telah mengantongi sertifikat merek, tetapi beredar barang dengan merek yang menyerupai persamaan pada pokoknya, yaitu 'Ever Last' buatan Bandung. Atas hal ini, Everlast merasa khawatir konsumen terkecoh sehingga berimbas kepada produsen Everlast. Produsen Everlast asli, Everlast World's Boxing Headquarters Corporation pun menggugat pengusaha lokas asal Bandung, Tedy Tjahyadi.

Namun gugatan ini ditolak oleh Pengadilan Negeri Jakarta Pusat (PN Jakpus) pada 12 April 2012. Mendapat 'pukulan' telak tersebut, perusahaan yang beralamat di 1350 Broadway, New York, AS ini mengajukan kasasi dan dikabulkan.

Majelis kasasi yang terdiri dari I Made Tara, Soltoni Mohdally dan Prof Syamsul Ma'arif PhD Mengabulkan gugatan Penggugat untuk seluruhnya. Ketiganya menyatakan penggugat sebagai pemilik dan pendaftar pertama atas merek dagang Everlast di Indonesia maupun di dunia internasional. Oleh karenanya mempunyai hak tunggal untuk memakai merek dagang Everlast.

MA menilai pengusaha lokal mendompleng ketenaran merek milik Everlast. Dalam putusan yang diketok pada 17 September 2012 lalu ini, MA memerintahkan Kementerian Hukum dan HAM mencabut sertifikat merek Ever Last.

Copyright as an Intangible Movable Property: Understanding Tangible and Intangible Value

By: Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. In Intellectual Property law practice, one of the most common misconceptions is the view that possession of a physical object is identical to possession of all rights attached to that object. For example, purchasing a painting is often understood as a basis for reproducing that painting. Similarly, receiving the source code of a computer...

Copyright, Creator, and Ownership of Computer Programs in the Indonesian Legal Perspective

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. One of the fundamental issues that often leads to disputes in copyright law practice is the lack of clear understanding regarding the relationship between the party financing the creation of a work, the party creating the work, and the party entitled to economic benefits from it. In business practice, these three concepts are often treated as...

When Form Becomes Identity: Understanding 3D Brands and Industrial Design in Branding Strategy

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. The development of intellectual property law shows that the identity of a trademark is no longer limited to just a name, writing, or two-dimensional logo. In commercial practice, certain product shapes and packaging often have a stronger distinctive power than the brand name itself. Consumers in many situations can recognize the origin of...

Why is it difficult for the law to provide an absolute definition of a famous mark

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. The concept of a "well-known mark" is one of the most important concepts in trademark law, yet it is also one of the most difficult to define absolutely. Almost all trademark legal systems in various countries recognize it as a basis for broader legal protection for a mark that has a strong reputation. However, interestingly,...

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. Many companies still view physical assets such as buildings, machinery, inventory, and financial reports as the primary measures of business strength. However, in the current economic development, a company's value is increasingly determined by its intellectual property. In many global companies, the most valuable assets are no longer tangible...

When Market Perceptions Change and Global Brand Giants Fall

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. Not a few major global brands were once considered too strong to be defeated. These names not only dominated the market but also shaped consumption culture, social status symbols, and even the identity of certain generations. However, business history shows that no matter how strong a brand's power, it can still decline when companies...

Brand as a Composition: Harmony of Sound, Color, Form, and Social Resonance in Architecture

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. When dissected more deeply, a brand is not merely a trade name or a visual symbol that functions to differentiate one product from another. In a much more complex dimension, the process of brand formation is actually very similar to the birth of a musical work. Just as a song is composed through the harmony of notes, rhythm, tempo, emotional...

Viral Brands Are No Accident: Branding Entry Strategies in Creating Market Explosions

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. Not a few people assume that a brand goes viral solely due to luck, social media momentum, or a fleeting trend. However, in contemporary branding practices, virality is often the result of a perception strategy consciously designed from the outset. Some brands are even intentionally shaped to become public talking points before their products are...

Brands as Modern Religions: When Brands Become Social Belief Systems

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. In classical business theory, brands are generally understood as commercial identities that function to differentiate the goods or services of one business entity from those of another. However, in contemporary branding practices, some of the world's major brands have evolved far beyond the mere function of product identification. At a...

Intentionally "Wrong" but Strong Brand Name Strategies

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. In contemporary branding practices, there is an interesting phenomenon where some companies build their brand identity through words that are linguistically considered non-standard, unusual, or appear as deviations from commonly known spellings. Although often perceived as a form of writing "error," such modifications are in fact...
