Law of Trademarks

The Board of Grievances may, in a civil or criminal lawsuit, render a judgment to confiscate seized items or items seized afterward, to deduct their value from the damages or fines or to dispose thereof in accordance with the conditions and procedures provided for in the Implementing Regulations. The Board of Grievances may order the publication of the judgment in one newspaper, or more, at the expense of the convicted party. It may also order the destruction of forged or imitated trademarks or trademarks unlawfully placed or used, and order, when necessary, the destruction of the items carrying such trademarks even if a judgment of acquittal is rendered.
