http://dbpedia.org/resource/Burger_King_legal_issues
http://dbpedia.org/ontology/abstract The legal issues of Burger King include seThe legal issues of Burger King include several legal disputes and lawsuits involving the international fast food restaurant chain Burger King (BK) as both plaintiff and defendant in the years since its founding in 1954. These have involved almost every aspect of the company's operations. Depending on the ownership and executive staff at the time of these incidents, the company's responses to these challenges have ranged from a conciliatory dialog with its critics and litigants to a more aggressive opposition with questionable tactics and negative consequences. The company's response to these various issues has drawn praise, scorn, and accusations of political appeasement from different parties over the years. A diverse range of groups have raised issues, such as People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), over the welfare of animals, governmental and social agencies over health issues and compliance with nutritional labeling laws, and unions and trade groups over labor relations and laws. These situations have touched on the concepts of animal rights, corporate responsibility and ethics, as well as social justice. While the majority of the disputes did not result in lawsuits, in many of the cases the situations raised legal questions, dealt with statutory compliance, or resulted in legal remedies such as changes in contractual procedure or binding agreements between parties. The resolutions to these legal matters have often altered the way the company interacts and negotiates contracts with its suppliers and franchisees or how it does business with the public. Further controversies have occurred because of the company's involvement in the Middle East. The opening of a Burger King location in the Israeli-occupied territories led to a breach of contract dispute between Burger King and its Israeli franchise; the dispute eventually erupted into a geopolitical conflagration involving Muslim and Jewish groups on multiple continents over the application of and adherence to international law. The case eventually elicited reactions from the members of the 22-nation Arab League; the Islamic countries within the League made a joint threat to the company of legal sanctions including the revocation of Burger King's business licenses within the member states' territories. A second issue involving members of the Islamic faith over the interpretation of the Muslim version of Canon Law, Shariah, regarding the promotional artwork on a dessert package in the United Kingdom raised issues of cultural sensitivity, and, with the former example, posed a larger question about the lengths to which companies must go to ensure the smooth operation of their businesses in the communities they serve. A trademark dispute involving the owners of the identically named Burger King in Mattoon, Illinois led to a federal lawsuit; the case's outcome helped define the scope of the Lanham act and trademark law in the United States. An existing trademark held by a shop of the same name in South Australia forced the company to change its name in Australia, while another state trademark in Texas forced the company to abandon its signature product, the Whopper, in several counties around San Antonio. The company was only able to enter northern Alberta, in Canada, in 1995, after it paid the founders of another chain named Burger King. Legal decisions from other suits have set contractual law precedents in regards to long-arm statutes, the limitations of franchise agreements, and ethical business practices; many of these decisions have helped define general business dealings that continue to shape the entire marketplace. continue to shape the entire marketplace. , 汉堡王的法律纠纷包括一些涉及国际快餐连锁汉堡王(Burger King)的一系列法律汉堡王的法律纠纷包括一些涉及国际快餐连锁汉堡王(Burger King)的一系列法律纠纷和法律诉讼,包括国际快餐连锁汉堡王(Burger King,简称 BK)自1954年成立以来作为原告与被告的法律案件,几乎囊括了其运营的各个方面。由于处理这些法律纠纷时的执行总裁和执行人员不同,汉堡王对这些纠纷的应对也不同:从与批评人士和诉讼当事人进行和解对话,到更具攻击性的可疑策略和消极后果。 汉堡王对这些问题的反应引起了赞扬、嘲讽和不同政党多年来对政治绥靖政策的指责。 许多机构都同汉堡王都产生过法律纠纷,例如善待动物组织 (PETA)针对动物福利提出了不同意见,政府和社会机构针对公众健康问题和营养标签法的遵守提出了建议,工会和贸易团体同汉堡王有劳动关系和法律方面的纠纷。 这些纠纷涉及的领域包括动物权利、企业责任和企业道德,以及社会正义。 虽然大多数的法律纠纷并没有引发法律诉讼,但是在多数情况下,法律问题得以提出,法定遵守得以达成,或是补救措施得以实现,例如改变契约或改变缔约方之间的协议。 针对这些法律纠纷提出的决议经常改变其与供应商和加盟店的江湖合作方式,也改变了其与公众之间的展开业务的方式。 汉堡王进驻中东市场带来了更深层次的法律纠纷。在以色列选址之后,汉堡王同其以色列加盟店的一系列法律纠纷应随之产生。 该纠纷最终爆发为地缘政治冲突,涉及穆斯林和犹太人团体在各大洲遵守和饯行国际法。 22国阿拉伯联盟的成员国对此作出反应;该联盟中的一众伊斯兰国家共同作出了威胁到该公司的法律制裁,其中包括吊销汉堡王在其成员国领土内的 营业执照。 另一个法律纠纷涉及穆斯林国家对于穆斯林版教会法,即伊斯兰教法的不同理解。该纠纷有关文化敏感,是针对汉堡王在英国境内售卖的甜品包装上插图。而且这则纠纷与前例一样提出了一个更关键的问题,为了使自身运营得更长久,他们必须能够适应其顾客所在群体的文化背景。 汉堡王与伊利诺伊州,马顿的一家同名餐厅的商标纠纷引发了诉讼;此次诉讼的结果确定了美国兰哈姆法案和商标法的适用范围。作为该商标的持有者,位于南澳大利亚的同名公司迫使汉堡王在澳大利亚改名换姓;在圣安东尼奥周围的几个郡,得克萨斯州的商标法使得汉堡王失去了其标志性产品“皇堡”的商标权 。 在1995年,汉堡王仅能入加拿大的北艾伯塔省,并且是基于事先向当地另一家同样名为汉堡王的店买下商标权。 而其他法律诉讼中的判决结果为合同法设立了判决先例,其中涉及到长臂管辖权,特许经营协议,以及商业活动的道德考量;这当中的许多判决结果有助于定义一般的业务往来,并且有助于规范整个市场秩序。道德考量;这当中的许多判决结果有助于定义一般的业务往来,并且有助于规范整个市场秩序。
