Legal Protection for the Business

Abstract

Despite the importance of the business as a movable property consisting of a group of funds allocated by the merchant to engage in a specific commercial activity, the Iraqi legislator did not care to protect the commercial store as a single unit independent and distinct from the elements included in its formation against unfair competition acts that target this store and lead to turn away customers. Jurisprudence and jurisprudence played this role in its belief in the importance of the shop for the merchant, and in protecting the right of the latter to keep the largest possible number of customers, using the unfair competition lawsuit as a means for this protection, and basing this lawsuit on the idea of tort liability.
