| SEIZURE
OF FAKE GOODS We
have a team of lawyers and investigators who work closely
with the police on the enforcement of our client’s intellectual
property rights. They work exclusively on enforcement and
are not involved with our client’s trademark and patent
prosecution or other matters.
DESTRUCTION
OF FAKE GOODS
Seized counterfeit and imitation goods are held in police
custody until there is a final decision from the IPIT Court.
The Court will then order the seized goods to be destroyed.
Students
are invited to participate in the destruction to improve public
awareness of intellectual property rights and laws.
LEGITIMATE MACHINERY USED TO
MAKE FAKE GOODS
In
some circumstances, it may be possible for the police to seize
otherwise legitimate machinery, such as sewing machines, printing
presses, etc., if it can be shown that such machinery was
used only for unlawful purposes.
