Case No. 16-61802-CIV-SCOLA

Second Amended Final Default Judgment And Permanent Injunction
This matter is before the Court on the Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend the
Amended Final Default Judgment and Permanent Injunction to Add New
Domain Names (ECF No. 35). Previously, the Court entered an Amended Final
Default Judgment and Permanent Injunction (ECF No. 34), which permanently
enjoined the Defendants from, inter alia, manufacturing, importing,
advertising, promoting, distributing, selling or offering to sell counterfeit and
infringing goods using the Plaintiff’s trademarks. The Plaintiff has presented
clear and compelling evidence demonstrating multiple Defendants are acting in
violation of the amended permanent injunction on an ongoing basis.
A Court that issues a permanent injunction retains continuing
jurisdiction to modify it whenever the principles of equity require it to do so.
Permanent injunctions may be modified to impose more stringent requirements
to ensure the original purposes of the injunction are met. Exxon Corp. v. Texas
Motor Exchange of Houston, Inc., 628 F.2d 500, 503 (5th Cir. 1980). If the relief
originally ordered has not produced the intended result, the Court “should
modify the decree so as to achieve the required result with all appropriate
expedition.” United States v. United Shoe Machinery Corp., 391 U.S. 244, 252,
88 S. Ct. 1496, 7401 (1968). Modification of an injunction is particularly
appropriate where, as here, the defendant has acted to frustrate the purpose of
the original injunction. See Philip Morris USA, Inc. v. Otamedia Ltd., 331 F.
Supp. 2d 228 (S.D.N.Y. 2004) (amending permanent injunction).
The Court has carefully reviewed the Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend the
Amended Final Default Judgment and Permanent Injunction To Add New
Domain Names, the record, and the relevant legal authorities. Accordingly, it is
ordered and adjudged that Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend the Amended Final
Default Judgment and Permanent Injunction To Add New Domain Names (ECF
No. 35) is granted. Second Amended Judgment is hereby entered in favor of
Plaintiff Chanel, Inc. (“Plaintiff”), and against Defendants, the Individuals,

Partnerships, and Unincorporated Associations identified on Schedule “A”
hereto (collectively “Defendants”), on all Counts of the Complaint as follows:
1. Permanent Injunctive Relief:
Defendants and their officers, agents, representatives, servants,
employees and attorneys, and all persons acting in concert and participation
with them are hereby permanently restrained and enjoined from:
a.

manufacturing or causing to be manufactured, importing,
advertising, or promoting, distributing, selling or offering to sell
counterfeit and infringing goods using Plaintiff’s trademarks
identified in Paragraph 18 of the Complaint and Schedule “B”
attached thereto (the “Chanel Marks”);

b.

using the Chanel Marks in connection with the sale of any
unauthorized goods;

c.

using any logo, and/or layout which may be calculated to falsely
advertise the services or products of Defendants offered for sale or
sold via the domain names identified on Schedule “A” hereto
(collectively the “Subject Domain Names”) and/or any other
website, domain name, or business, as being sponsored by,
authorized by, endorsed by, or in any way associated with Plaintiff;

d.

falsely representing themselves as being connected with Plaintiff,
through sponsorship or association;

e.

engaging in any act which is likely to falsely cause members of the
trade and/or of the purchasing public to believe any goods or
services of Defendants offered for sale or sold via the Subject
Domain Names and/or any other website, domain name, or
business are in any way endorsed by, approved by, and/or
associated with Plaintiff;

f.

using any reproduction, counterfeit, copy, or colorable imitation of
the Chanel Marks in connection with the publicity, promotion,
sale, or advertising of any goods sold by Defendants via the Subject
Domain Names and/or any other website, domain name, or
business;

g.

affixing, applying, annexing or using in connection with the sale of
any goods, a false description or representation, including words or
other symbols tending to falsely describe or represent goods offered
for sale or sold by Defendants via the Subject Domain Names
and/or any other website, domain name, or business, as being
those of Plaintiff or in any way endorsed by Plaintiff;

h.

otherwise unfairly competing with Plaintiff;

i.

using the Chanel Marks, or any confusingly similar trademarks,
within domain name extensions, metatags or other markers within
website source code, from use on any webpage (including as the
title of any web page), from any advertising links to other websites,
from search engines’ databases or cache memory, and from any
other form of use of such terms which is visible to a computer user
or serves to direct computer searches to websites registered by,
owned, or operated by Defendants, including the Internet websites
operating under all of the Subject Domain Names; and

j.

effecting assignments or transfers, forming new entities or
associations or utilizing any other device for the purpose of
circumventing or otherwise avoiding the prohibitions set forth
above.

2. Additional Equitable Relief:
Plaintiff is additionally entitled to the following equitable relief:
a.
In order to give practical effect to the Permanent Injunction, the
Subject Domain Names are hereby ordered to be immediately
transferred by Defendants, their assignees and/or successors in
interest or title, and the Registrars to Plaintiff’s control. To the
extent the current Registrars do not facilitate the transfer of the
Subject Domain Names to Plaintiff’s control within five (5) days of
receipt of this judgment, the Registries shall, within thirty (30)
days, change the Registrar of Record for the Subject Domain
Names to a Registrar of Plaintiff’s choosing, and that Registrar
shall transfer the Subject Domain Names to Plaintiff;
b.

Upon Plaintiff’s request, the top level domain (“TLD”) Registry for
each of the Subject Domain Names, or their administrators,
including backend registry operators or administrators, within
thirty (30) days of receipt of this Order, shall place the Subject

Domain Names on Registry Hold status for the life of the current
registration, thus removing them from the TLD zone files
maintained by the Registry which links the Subject Domain Names
to the IP addresses where the associated websites are hosted.

are determined to be $1,000,000.00 against each Defendant, for which
let execution issue:
