国家工商行政管理局商标局关于申请商标注册不再允许填报商品和服务类似群名称的决定
国家工商行政管理局商标局
各省、自治区、直辖市及计划单列市工商行政管理局，各商标代理组织：
实行新的商标注册收费标准后，商标注册申请工作总的情况是好的，但在填报商品或服务项目方面还存在一些问题，主要是对一些可以填报类似群名称的商品或服务项目数量计算难以规范，导致我局审查人员与商标注册申请人或代理人在填报商品和服务项目数量计算方面的看法不一致
，造成了商标注册申请退文量的增加，不利于商标注册申请人及时获得商标权利。
我局编印的《类似商品区分表》和《类似服务区分表》中的类似群名称，主要是为在商标审查和商标管理工作中划分类似商品时使用的一个导向性名称，并且不少类似群名称也不十分准确规范。为此，经研究，我局规定，从7月1日起，申请商标注册不再允许填报商品和服务类似群名
称，一律填报具体商品和服务项目名称。
在执行中有什么问题请及时与我局申请处联系。

1882 c. 61 s. 2 U. K.]
PART II BILLS OF EXCHANGE
nded 51 of 1911; 63 of 1911 Schedule)
and Interpretation
efinition of bill of exchange
A bill of exchange is an unconditional order in writing, addressed
by
person to another, signed by the person giving it,
requiring the
on to whom it is addressed to pay on demand or at a
fixed or
rminable future time a sum certain in money to, or to the order
of, a
ified person or to bearer.
An instrument which does not comply with these conditions, or
which
rs any act to be done in addition to the payment of money, is
not a
of exchange.
An order to pay out of a particular fund is not
nditional within the meaning of this section; but an unqualified
order
ay, coupled with--
an indication of a particular fund out of which the drawee
is to
burse himself or a particular account to be debited with the
amount;
a statement of the transaction which gives rise to the
bill, is
nditional.
A bill is not invalid by reason--
that it is not dated;
that it does not specify the value given or that any value has
been
n therefor;
that it does not specify the place where it is drawn
he place where it is payable.
1882 c. 61 s. 3 U. K.]
nland and foreign bills
An inland bill is a bill which is or on the face of it purports
to be-
both drawn and payable within the Colony; or
drawn within the Colony, upon some person resident therein.
Any other bill is a foreign bill.
Unless the contrary appears on the face of the bill, the holder
may
t it as an inland bill.
1882 c. 61 s. 4 U. K.]
ffect where different parties to bill are the same person
A bill may be drawn payable to, or to the order of, the drawer;
or it
be drawn payable to, or to the order of, the drawee.
Where, in a bill, drawer and drawee are the same person, or where
the
ee is a fictitious person or a person not having capacity to
contract,
holder may treat the instrument, at his option, either as a
bill of
ange or as a promissory note. [cf. 1882 c. 61 s. 5 U. K.]
ddress to drawee
The drawee must be named or otherwise indicated in a
bill with
onable certainty.
A bill may be addressed to two or more drawees,
her they are partners or not, but an order addressed to two drawees
in
alternative, or to two or more drawees in succession, is not a
bill of
ange.
1882 c. 61 s. 6 U. K.]
ertainty required as to payee
Where a bill is not payable to bearer, the payee must be
named or
rwise indicated therein with reasonable certainty.
A bill may be made payable to two or more payees jointly, or it
may be
payable in the alternative to one of two or one or some of
several
es. A bill may also be made payable to the bolder of an office
for the
being.
Where the payee is a fictitious or non-existing person, the bill
may
reated as payable to bearer.
1882 c. 61 s. 7 U. K.]
hat bills are negotiable
Where a bill contains words prohibiting transfer, or
indicating an
ntion that it should not be transferable, it is valid as between
the
ies thereto, but is not negotiable.
A negotiable bill may be payable either to order or to bearer.
A bill is payable to bearer which is expressed to be so payable,
or on
h the only or last indorsement is an indorsement in blank.
A bill is payable to order which is expressed to be so payable,
or
h is expressed to be payable to a particular person, and
does not
ain words prohibiting transfer or indicating an intention
that it
ld not be transferable.
Where a bill, either originally or by
rsement, is expressed to be payable to the order of a
specified
on, and not to him or his order, it is nevertheless payable to
him or
order at his option.
1882 c. 61 s. 8 U. K.]
um payable
The sum payable by a bill is a sum certain within the meaning of
this
nance, although it is required to be paid--
with interest;
by stated instalments;
by stated instalments, with a provision that, upon default in
payment
ny instalment, the whole shall become due;
according to an indicated rate of exchange or according to a rate
of
ange to be ascertained as directed by the bill.
Where the sum payable is expressed in words and also in figures,
and
e is a discrepancy between the two, the sum denoted by the words
is
amount payable.
Where a bill is expressed to be payable with
rest, unless the instrument otherwise provides, interest runs
from the
of the bill, and, if the bill is undated, from the issue thereof.
1882 c. 61 s. 9 U. K.]
Bill payable on demand
A bill is payable on demand--
which is expressed to be payable on demand, or at sight,
or on
entation; or
in which no time for payment is expressed.
Where a bill is accepted or indorsed when it is overdue, it shall,
as
rds the acceptor who so accepts or any indorser who so indorses
it, be
ed a bill payable on demand.
1882 c. 61 s. 10 U. K.]
Bill payable at future time
A bill is payable at a determinable future time within the meaning
of
Ordinance which is expressed to be payable--
at a fixed period after date or sight;
on or at a fixed period after the occurrence of a specified
event
h is certain to happen, though the time of happening may be
uncertain.
An instrument expressed to be payable on a contingency is not a
bill,
the happening of the event does not cure the defect.
1882 c. 61 s. 11 U. K.]
Omission of date in bill payable after date
e a bill expressed to be payable at a fixed period after
date is
ed undated, or where the acceptance of a bill payable at a
fixed
od after sight is undated, any holder may insert therein the true
date
ssue or acceptance, and the bill shall be payable
accordingly:
ided that--
where the holder in good faith and by mistake inserts a wrong
date;
n every case where a wrong date is inserted, if the bill
equently comes into the hands of a holder in due course, the
bill
l not be avoided thereby, but shall operate and be payable as if
the
so inserted had been the true date. [cf. 1882 c. 61 s. 12 U. K.]
Ante-dating and post-dating
Where a bill or an acceptance or any indorsement on a bill is
dated,
date shall, unless the contrary is proved, be deemed to be the
true
of the drawing, acceptance, or indorsement, as the case may be.
A bill is not invalid by reason only that it is ante-dated or
post-
d, or that it bears date on a Sunday or any other general holiday.
nded 5 of 1912 s. 8) [cf. 1882 c. 61 s. 13 U. K.]
Computation of time of payment
e a bill is not payable on demand, the day on which it falls due
is
rmined as follows--
the bill is due and payable in all cases on the last day of the
time
ayment as fixed by the bill or, if that is a general holiday, on
the
eeding business day; (Replaced 67 of 1972 s. 2) [cf. 1971 c. 80
s. 3
U. K.]
where a bill is payable at a fixed period after date, after sight,
or
r the happening of a specified event, the time of
payment is
rmined by excluding the day from which the time is to begin to
run and
ncluding the day of payment;
where a bill is payable at a fixed
od after sight, the time begins to run form the date of the
acceptance
he bill is accepted, and from the date of noting or protest if
the
is noted or protested for non-acceptance or for non-delivery;
the
"month" in a bill means calendar month.
1882 c. 61 s. 14 U. K.]
Referee in case of need
drawer of a bill and any indorser may insert therein the name
of a
on to whom the holder may resort in case of need, that is to say,
in
the bill is dishonoured by non-acceptance or non-payment. Such
person
alled the referee in case of need. It is in the option of the
holder
esort to the referee in case of need or not, as he may think fit.
1882 c. 61 s. 15 U. K.]
Optional stipulations by drawer or indorser
drawer of a bill and any indorser may insert therein an
express
ulation--
negativing or limiting his own liability to the holder;
waiving, as regards himself, some or all of the holder's duties.
[cf.
c. 61 s. 16 U. K.]
Definition and requisites of acceptance
The acceptance of a bill is the signification by the drawee of
his
nt to the order of the drawer.
An acceptance is invalid unless it complies with the
following
itions, namely--
it must be written on the bill and be signed by
drawee. The mere signature of the drawee, without additional
words, is
icient;
it must not express that the drawee will perform his promise by
any
r means than the payment of money.
1882 c. 61 s. 17 U. K.]
Time for acceptance
A bill may be accepted--
before it has been signed by the drawer, or while
otherwise
mplete;
when it is overdue, or after it has been dishonoured by a
ious refusal to accept or by non-payment.
When a bill payable after sight is dishonoured by non-acceptance,
and
drawee subsequently accepts it, the holder, in the absence
of any
erent agreement, is entitled to have the bill accepted as of the
date
irst presentment of the drawee for acceptance.
nded 51 of 1911; 63 of 1911 Schedule)
1882 c. 61 s. 18 U. K.]
General and qualified acceptance
An acceptance is either (a) general; or (b) qualified.
A general acceptance assents without qualification to the order
of the
er. A qualified acceptance in express terms varies the effect of
the
as drawn.
In particular, an acceptance is qualified which is--
conditional, that is to say, which makes payment by the
acceptor
ndent on the fulfilment of a condition therein stated,
partial, that is to say, an acceptance to pay part only of the
amount
which the bill is drawn;
local, that is to say, an acceptance to pay only at a
particular
ified place; an acceptance to pay at a particular place is a
general
ptance, unless it expressly states that the bill is to be paid
there
and not elsewhere;
qualified as to time;
the acceptance of some one or more of the drawees, but not of all.
1882 c. 61 s. 19 U. K.]
Inchoate instruments
Where a simple signature on a blank paper is delivered by the
signer
rder that it may be converted into a bill, it operates as a
prima
e authority to fill it up as a complete bill for any amount, using
the
ature for that of the drawer, or the acceptor, or an indorser;
and, in
manner, when a bill is wanting in any material particular, the
person
ossession of it has a prima facie authority to fill up the omission
in
way he thinks fit. (Amended 31 of 1981 s. 65)
In order that any such instrument, when completed, may be
enforceable
nst any person who became a party thereto prior to its completion,
it
be filled up within a reasonable time and strictly in accordance
with
authority given. Reasonable time for this purpose is a
question of
: Provided that if any such instrument after completion is
negotiated
holder in due course, it shall be valid and effectual
for all
oses in his hands, and he may enforce it as if it had been filled
up
in a reasonable time and strictly in accordance with the
authority
