You Can Not Judge the Judge

Start from the beginning
                                        

Hon'ble Judge Grey Black examined both packets seriously.He sniffed both packets (maybe hoping rice would tell him the truth — it didn't). Looked at provisions of Trademark Act 1999. Then, calmly declared:"Names confusingly similar. Looks similar. Product identical. Danger of confusion is real.I grant an injunction. Mr. Black, tell your client Mr. Red to stop selling Regal Rice Brand!"

Mr. White smiled like a cricketer after hitting a six.Mr. Black's tie lost half its color. Outside court, Mr. White's client, Mr.Green jumped with excitement but still looked worried.

Mr. Green: "Sir, sir! We won! Right? So now Regal Grain vanishes?"

Mr. White: "Well... temporarily. May be till the next fight."

Mr. Green: (confused) "Next fight? I thought court is like final boss level?"

Mr. White: (laughing) "No, sir. This may be First Round. Now they may appeal in High Court. Think of it like PUBG — more levels, more enemies, less battery."

Mr. Green: started googling "How long does court case last in India" and immediately fainted after hearing the answer " 7-10 years approximately on an average."

Second Round: Appeal to High Court — Hon'ble Judge Grey: Next stop: High Court.

Coincidentally, the High Court Hon'ble Judge was also named Grey.

This time, Mr. Black argued with fireworks:"Your Honor, this rice is not for the common public! It costs more than a movie date with popcorn and cola!Only rich, educated people buy this.And educated people don't mix up Regal and Real.They mix up taxes, not rice!"

Mr. White fought back:"Even rich people can make mistakes!Especially when all packets have golden shine and sleepy elephants!

Hon'ble Judge Grey sipped his ginger tea and said thoughtfully: "Hmm... educated buyers are careful buyers.No real confusion. Injunction is lifted. Let Regal Rice Brand live!"

Mr. Black's face lit up like Diwali.Outside High Court, Mr. Green ,the owner of Real Rice Brand, was vibrating with stress. He asked his lawyer Mr. White.

Mr. Green:: "Sir... what happened?! Judge sir removed the stay?

Mr. White: "Judge sir felt rich people don't get confused. Only poor heartbroken souls do."

Mr. Green:: (tearing up) "But sir, what about elephant device? Our emotional elephant?"

Mr. White: (patting his back) "In law, elephants have no emotions. Only evidence matters."

Mr. Green:: (whispering sadly) "First lost my rice market, now lost my faith in elephant."

Meanwhile, Mr. Black's client celebrated by ordering biryani — sadly, now with Regal Rice Brand.

Third Round: Supreme Court — Hon'ble Judge Grey White.

But Mr. White wasn't done.He took the battle to the Supreme Court.And there sat the Hon'ble Justice Grey White — half logic, half poetry, fully unpredictable.After long arguments, Justice Grey White asked:"Who actually buys this luxury rice? Rich owners? Or their house help?"

Everyone froze.

He answered himself: "It's usually the house help — drivers, maids, cooks — carrying heavy golden packets.To them, Real and Regal can easily look the same."

Then with a small chuckle, he added:"When you're underpaid, overworked, and shopping in a hurry, all elephants look alike!"

Finally, Hon'ble Grey White announced:"Injunction restored! Protect Real Rice Brand."
