A firm must be used essentially as registered, without truncation or abbreviation; the defendant's shortened designations in business dealings were unlawful.
Motivazione estratta
The firm serves identification and must not mislead as to identity, nature, or liability structure. Any use in direct relation to business traffic, including signatures and legal acts, falls under the statute.
