eBay wins trademark lawsuit against Tiffany
A decision by US District Judge Richard Sullivan has spared eBay of the damages of a trademark lawsuit filed by Tiffany, a popular luxury jewelry brand. The court has recognized the appropriate actions taken by eBay in removing the listings and suspending the service for sellers who offer counterfeit goods. It was also discovered that some of the goods thought to be “counterfeit” were actually legitimate, second-hand items.
The judge’s ruling also points out that company that carries the brand should be the one responsible for protecting their brand from counterfeiting. Therefore, Tiffany is expected to be the party responsible for policing the sale of their goods. The court ruling expressed the over controlling action of Tiffany over online sales at eBay.
