- With the A, how was the case of the Rosco de

Pasapalabra

?

- Archived!

-Cooooo straight.

The commercial court number 8 of Barcelona has definitively dismissed the last legal chapter of a contest that has been chaining litigation in recent times and has ruled that the winner of

Pasapalabra will

be able to continue settling with his famous final Rosco, the space in which Contestants must match a word beginning with each letter of the alphabet from their definitions.

The judge has thus dismissed the lawsuit filed by the Dutch company MC&F against the companies Atresmedia and ITV for the final test of the program so that their intellectual property rights over it were recognized.

Last October, the judge ruled in an order that the Antena 3 program could continue to broadcast the last test of the program until the merits of the lawsuit were resolved, thus rejecting the precautionary measures that the Dutch society had requested, that demanded the cessation of the emission of the Rosco.

The

Pasapalabra

program

was already the subject of another legal dispute that was settled in October 2019, after nine years in court, when the Supreme Court forced Telecinco to cancel the contest, after losing the confrontation it had with the British producer ITV for its emission rights.

The Supreme Court ruling that last year settled the litigation for Pasapalabra's rights did not determine whether Rosco's test was capable of being protected by intellectual property as an autonomous format, a matter that later became the main object of the lawsuit filed by MC&F.

In the preview held in November of last year, the defense of the defendant argued that the judicial process should not continue since the dispute "has already been resolved", alluding to the "final" judgment of the Supreme Court, adding, in this In this sense, if the lawsuit went to trial, a "same litigation can be prolonged indefinitely", also giving rise to repetitive or contradictory sentences.

In addition, Atresmedia's defense admitted "suspecting" that the "reason" why the Dutch company did not participate in the previous judicial proceeding was due to a "strategy agreed" with Mediaset, as a "pretext" to file a second lawsuit, which Now the magistrate decides whether or not he takes a trial.

On the other hand, the defense of the Dutch company argued that this second lawsuit should go to trial, since its "petitions, claims and causes are different" from those raised in the first one, since that one did not include El Rosco in the judicial process nor was it "mentioned".

The sentence to which this newspaper has had access definitively rejects the demand and considers the matter of the final test of Pasapalabra already judged.
