Abstract

In a recent case involving the correct construction of s.92(l) of the Trade Marks Act 1994, the Supreme Court ruled that this section applies to both grey goods and counterfeit goods and, therefore, persons dealing in grey market products may be liable to criminal prosecution. This comment considers the judgment and its implications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
