Inom gemenskapsrätten idag, kännetecknas genomsnittskonsumenten såsom rimligen intelligent och rationell i sitt beslutsfattande. Dessa antaganden formar grunden för ett normativt angreppssätt, vilket gör att domstolar inte behöver använda sig av extern empirisk fakta, för att avgöra huruvida konsumenten uppfattar två varumärken såsom så snarlika, att risk för förväxling föreligger. Genom att tilläExisting trademark law in both the European Union and the United States, allow courts to enlist the help of a representative consumer, in order determine whether two trademarks are confusingly similar.

När ett avtal mellan en spökskrivare (upphovsman) och en uppdragsgivare (förvärvare) ingås angående överlåtelse av namngivningsrätt, aktualiseras en av de mer intrikata juridiska frågeställningarna som berör gränslandet mellan upphovsrätt och avtalsrätt. Vid en första anblick, med utgångspunkt i vad upphovsrättslagen stadgar, verkar det inte vara möjligt för en upphovsman att totalt överlåta sin rWhen an agreement is entered into between a ghostwriter (author) and a commissioner (acquirer) regarding the transfer of the right of attribution, one of the more intricate legal questions concerning the borderland between copyright and contract law is raised.
