Interflora v Marks & Spencer: not so many questions for the ECJ to answer
Back in November, Class 46 reported on the decision of the High Court for England and Wales in Interflora v Marks & Spencer.

Now that the Court of Justice has given its ruling in the Google France case, the Registrar of the Court wrote to ask Mr Justice Arnold if he still wanted rulings on his questions and, if he did still want them answered, if he would clarify two of them.
