Name dispute over "AUSTRIA"

In 2006, after the market launch of the daily ÖSTERREICH , Böck submitted an application for cancellation of this newspaper name to the Austrian Patent Office on October 10, 2006 . The procedure went through all instances. The appeal was dismissed by the Constitutional Court as the last instance, even though there is no medium anywhere in the world with the name of a country in its title.
