Warner Bros and Nike Obtain Injunction against Counterfeiters

2017/01/18

US entertainment company Warner Bros and sportswear multinational Nike have obtained a permanent injunction against counterfeiters, nearly three years after filing a claim.
Back in February 2014, Warner Bros and Nike, along with Disney, DC Comics and Sanrio Company, filed a copyright and trademark infringement claim against approximately 60 counterfeiters at the US District Court for the District of Puerto Rico.
On January 10 this year, US District Judge Jay Garcia-Gregory ordered that 44 of the counterfeiters pay the companies damages, ranging from $5,000 to $75,000.
Warner Bros and the other plaintiffs can now destroy all of the counterfeit merchandise that has been seized.
