A-Plus Funeral Management Limited has dragged A-Class Funeral Services Uganda Limited to court over a name.
A-Plus Funeral Management Limited in September 2020 got information that another company had been incorporated with the Uganda Registration Services Bureau with a name that is confusingly similar to theirs.
Aplus then carried out research with the (UgaRegSerBeau) and discovered that A- class had indeed been incorporated and added to the company register on August 31, 2020, to carry out the same business and trade .
A-Plus contends that despite raising objections to the registration of A-Class Funeral Services Uganda Limited which is confusingly similar to their widely known name, URSB refused to heed to the call.
According to court documents, by using the name A-Class Funeral Services, the new company is in a wrongful attempt to pass off A-Plus Funeral Management Limited and mislead the public into wrong belief.
A-Plus Funeral Management now wants the Commercial Division of the High Court to declare that the new funeral company’s name is a pass off of their business and name.
A-Plus Funeral Management also wants court to declare that URSB negligently facilitated A-Class Funeral Services’ passing off of its name and business.
