For my lawsuit, I will be
summarizing the lawsuit between Apple Inc. and Fei Lik Lam and his parents
about Lams website business called whiteiphone4now.com.
Apple
filed a lawsuit against Lam and his parents for infringement on their
trademarks and selling of their products without their permission. Lam had
gotten white iPhone parts that were still being developed by someone he knew
who was working at apple. He was getting the parts and selling them to people
all over through his website.
Apple
asked for an injunction keeping the Lams from any further sales. Also to forfeit
all the profits made from selling the iPhone 4 parts and other penalties as
well. Needless to say, Apple won the
case and the Lam’s had to pay all the penalties listed above.
My view
on this is that you don’t mess with Apple. They are very serious about the use
of their trademark.
