Pending Determination on Implementing the Specified Actions

In a recent turn of events, the world-renowned Porzellanmanufaktur Meißen has initiated a legal action against Compact Magazin, the publisher of the magazine, due to trademark infringement. The dispute revolves around the use of the Meissen crossed swords, a symbol of European history and a world-famous manufactory, in a video report about the AfD's mayoral candidate.

The Meissen crossed swords, a symbol of a long-standing tradition, have been used as a trademark for centuries. They are one of the oldest registered trademarks in Europe and are synonymous with the Porzellanmanufaktur Meißen. The crossed swords have been the symbol of the Meissen porcelain for centuries, representing the manufactory's rich history and tradition.

The publisher of Compact Magazin, Kai Homilius from the Kai Homilius Verlag, is at the centre of the controversy. The infringement occurred in a video report about the AfD's mayoral candidate, where the world-renowned trademark of the crossed swords was used without permission.

The Porzellanmanufaktur Meißen is protesting against the political appropriation of their trademark. They argue that the use of their symbol in such a context dilutes its historical and cultural significance. In a similar situation, Prince zur Lippe's vineyard in Proschwitz was used for filming without consent.

The legal action seeks an injunction, similar to the one granted to Prince zur Lippe. The manufactory is determined to protect its trademark and uphold its reputation as a symbol of European history and a world-class manufactory.

The Meissen crossed swords are not just a symbol of the manufactory; they are a widely recognized symbol of quality and tradition. Their significance extends far beyond the realm of porcelain, representing a piece of European history that spans centuries.

As the case unfolds, it serves as a reminder of the importance of respecting trademarks and the cultural and historical significance they hold. The Porzellanmanufaktur Meißen's legal action against Compact Magazin is a testament to their commitment to protecting their brand and preserving the legacy of the Meissen crossed swords.
