The "J.P.CHENET" trademark was created by Les Grands Chais De France (GCF) for wine product in 1985, remarkable for its unconventional outlook design of the declining bottle. GCF accused Muti International Trade (Tianjin) Ltd. (Muti Tianjin) to Tianjin Second Intermediate People's Court for importing "J.P.CHENET" wine from Britain without authorization by GCF and infringing its exclusive right to use registered trademark. The Court held that, the "J.P.CHENET" wine imported by Muti Tianjin were sold with its original package without any processing, and did not cause any confusion among consumers, so the court rejected the complaint. GCF appealed to Tianjin Higher People's Court, which sustained the decision of the first instance.
