Dominancy Test in Trademark (Kolin v. Kolin)
The Dominancy Test focuses on the similarity of the prevalent features of the competing trademarks which might cause confusion or deception, and thus infringement.

Duplication or imitation is not necessary; nor is it necessary that the infringing label should suggest an effort to imitate. The question is whether the use of the marks involved is likely to cause confusion or mistake in the mind of the public or deceive purchasers.
Res Ipsa Loquitur
The doctrine of res ipsa loquitur is an exception to the rule that hearsay evidence is devoid of probative value. This is because the doctrine of res ipsa loquitur establishes a rule on negligence, whether the evidence is subjected to cross-examination or not. It is a rule that can stand on its own independently of the character of the evidence presented as hearsay.
