The Federal Court decision in Burberry Limited and Chanel Limited, et al v. Ward et al, 2023 FC 1257 marks a significant enhancement in the remedies available to rights-holders against purveyors of counterfeit goods. Notably, the Federal Court granted novel injunctive relief on a rolling basis against a purveyor of counterfeit goods, allowing the plaintiffs to halt future importation of counterfeit goods brought in under new aliases and addresses by the defendants.
