The Court sets aside in part the judgment of the General Court concerning registration of the sign ‘BUD’ as a Community trade mark and refers the matter back to the General Court for a further decision. A geographical indication protected in a Member State may prevent registration of a Community trade mark only when it is actually used in a sufficiently significant manner in the course of trade in a substantial part of that State.
