In the matter of *Taj Food Sales Pty Ltd v G S Pacific Marketing (Aust) Pty Ltd*, the applicant sought to register a trade mark, and the respondent opposed this application. The decision was made by Bianca Irgang.
The court was required to consider the grounds of opposition raised by the respondent under sections 44 and 60 of the relevant Act. The court noted that if the respondent could establish one ground of opposition in relation to all of the applicant's goods and services, then it would not be necessary to consider the other ground.

The text references several previous Federal Court decisions, including *Pfizer Products Inc v Karam*, *Sports Warehouse Inc v Fry Consulting*, and *NV Sumatra Tobacco Trading Company v British American Tobacco Services Limited*, suggesting that the court was applying established principles of trade mark law, likely concerning distinctiveness, prior use, or the likelihood of deception or confusion.
