The Court considered right of an applicant for the registration of a trade mark to change the class number specified by him on Form TM3 in respect of goods for which he had made an application for registration. The appeal turned on the true construction of the relevant provisions of the Trade Marks Act 1994 (the 1994 Act) and of the Trade Marks Rules 1994, as amended (the Rules), and their application to the facts of this case.
