Home Dictionary Name: genuineGenuine use
Genuine use, where use is a mere sham, is formalis-tic or notional, where it is empty of substance and directed solely at avoiding revocation and does not serve to carve out an opening in the market for the goods and services to which it relates, that use does not constitute genuine use. Examination of the various language versions of the directive (the Dutch version uses the term 'normal', the French has 'usage serieux' the Portuguese, 'uso serio', the English 'genuine use', and the German, 'ernsthafte Benutzung'; the Italian uses the same adjective as the Spanish: 'effettivo') leades to the conclusion that the kind of use intended is what may be described as 'sufficient', Ansul BV v. Ajax Brandbeveiliging BV, (2004) 3 WLR 1048 (EC)...

Benami
Benami, the word 'benami' issued to denote two classes of transactions which differ from each other in their legal character and incidents. In one sense, it signifies a transaction which is real, as for example, when A sells properties to B but the sale deed mentions X as the purchaser. Here the sale itself is genuine, but the real purchaser is B, X being his benamidar. This is the class of transactions which is usually termed as benami. But the word 'benami' is also occasionally used, perhaps not quite accurately, to refer to a sham transaction, as for example, when A purports to sell his property to B without intending that his title should cease or pass to B. The fundamental difference between these two classes of transactions is that whereas in the former there is an operative transfer resulting in the vesting of title in the transferee, in the latter there is none such, the transferor continuing to retain the title notwithstanding the execution of the transfer deed. It is only in ...
Fictitious entry
Fictitious entry, A fictitious entry is one which is not genuine. It is an unreal entry. Entries which are not genuine cannot confirm anybody's rights. It is too obvious to be stressed that an entry which is incorrectly introduced into the records by reason of ill-will or hostility is not only shorn of authenticity but also becomes utterly useless without any lawful basis, Bachan v. Kankar, AIR 1972 SC 2157 (2160): (1972) 2 SCC 555: (1973) 1 SCR 727....
Forgery
Forgery [fr. forger, Fr.; or fingo, Lat.], the crimen falsi, or the false making or alteration of an instrument, which purports on the face of it to be good and valid for the purposes for which it was created, with a design to defraud. The forged instrument must be false in itself. The mere subscribing a note, given as the party's own, by a fictitious name, was held not to be forgery, Reg. v. Martin, (1879) 5 QBD 34.The act of fraudulently making a false document or altering a real one to be used as if genuine, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 661.Forgery at Common Law was a misdemeanour but most forgeries have been made felony by statute. Many of these statutes were consolidated by 11 Geo. 4 & 1 Wm. 4, c. 66, repealed and replaced by the Forgery Act, 1861 (24 & 25 Vict. c. 98), but the law now principally depends on the Forgery Act, 1913 (3 & 4 Geo. 5, c. 27, 'an Act to consolidate, simplify and amend the law relating to forgery and kindred offences.' It repeals such portions of s...
