BIZ有权开罚单，但是这种罚单不是交通部那种的。你不交，国家机器不会来找你，BIZ只能通过小额法庭追债。

I don't understand. If this is not a city ticket, you don't really have to pay. It has nothing to do with the city then.

I don't know 中文生意名给不给注册! From what I know looks like Ottawa city does.
From my understanding, 池先生 wanted to get out of Laurier Optical after a 10 year contract. There are many reasons for getting out of Laurier. One of the reason was that the owner of Laurier Optical is a very tough business man and 池先生 would like to have more freedom in running his own business (e.g. be able to order his own stocks not just get them from Laurier).

池先生 wanted to keep the Chinese name ＂真光＂ which was his own creation. He used this name for 10 years and only his own store used this name (The owner of Laurier is not a Chinese and does not use any other name with any one of his other stores). So, 池先生 went ahead and handed in his application to trade mark "真光" with the English name "Tri's Optical". Laurier also hand in their application afterward with "真光" with the English name "True Vision". According to what I heard was that Laurier used a different font of "真光" and the city staff (of cause don't know Chinese) couldn't tell that the two "真光" were actually the same name and accepted the application.

Now after review, "真光" 注册 by 池先生 was approved by the city but Laurier is still appealing. The owner is using his chain store power try to fight this. The fight is not finish yet!

I will support 池先生!!

哦，我好象明白了，从你的叙述中，好象那些CITY STAFF不是把＂真光＂这两个字当作生意汉语注册名字注册的，而是当LOGO（标志图案，就象MICROSOFT的飘动的窗口）来处理的吧,难怪出来纠纷。恩，长知识了，长知识了。谢了。

As far as I understand, you don't really ahve to pay the ticket. It's like you park your car in an apartment's vister parking and forget to inform the manager and he gives you a ticket. This ticket is not from the city but the biz, so theorically, if you will never come back to this building again, you can just ignore it.

Oh! You have raised a very good point! You may be right. It had never come to my mind that it may be registered as a logo. I think I will check with the city and find out.
