Commercial Law, 2016 Bar — Question V
← Commercial LawESSAY
MS Brewery Corporation (MS) is a manufacturer and distributor of the popular beer “MS Lite.” It faces stiff competition from BA Brewery Corporation (BA) whose sales of its own beer product, “BA Lighter,” has soared to new heights. Meanwhile, sales of the “MS Lite” decreased considerably. The distribution and marketing personnel of MS later discovered that BA has stored thousands of empty bottles of “MS Lite” manufactured by MS in one of its warehouses. MS filed a suit for unfair competition against BA before the Regional Trial Court (RTC). Finding a connection between the dwindling sales of MS and the increased sales of BA, the RTC ruled that BA resorted to acts of unfair competition to the detriment of MS. Is the RTC correct? Explain.
