Boehringer Ingelheim Ltd. and ors v. Vetplus Ltd. – WLR Daily
Boehringer Ingelheim Ltd. and ors v. Vetplus Ltd. [2007] EWCA Civ 584
“Where a trader sought to publish in comparative advertising the results of tests of a rival trader’s product, an important issue of freedom of expression was engaged, even though the comparative advertising would be aimed at diverting trade from one trader to another; and therefore the court would not grant an interim injunction to prevent such publication unless the court was satisfied that the applicant would succeed at trial in obtaining a final injunction.”
