Fake red-soled Louboutins sold on Amazon could set precedent for accountability

The Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) said Amazon could rightfully be held accountable for trademark infringement. Said Thierry Van Innis, Louboutin’s lawyer, “Amazon will be forced to change their model and stop misleading the public by mixing up their own and third-party offers.”
