NEW YORK (Reuters) Coach has accused Target (TGT) of selling a fake Coach purse, making the highend handbag maker the latest luxury company to go to court alleging trademark infringement. In a lawsuit filed in federal court in New York last week, Coach alleges that a Target store in Largo, Fla., was selling a counterfeit Coach purse marked with its logo and sporting its tags. Target was advertising the bag as being official Coach merchandise, said Coach spokeswoman Andrea Shaw Resnick. "This is counterfeit," she said. "We got one of the bags, had an engineer look at it, and there's no doubt that this is not official Coach merchandise." Target said in a statement: "The Coach product showcased in our store is authentic and legitimate. The lawsuit is without merit. Target has procedures in place to ensure that we do not sell counterfeit products to our guests." In its lawsuit, Coach said it suffered harm and damage in excess of $1 million as a result of the Target actions. It asked for an injunction to stop Target from selling any items that carry Coach trademarks. The maker of purses, briefcases and other leather goods also has asked that Target identify the distributors of the alleged counterfeit merchandise,[url=http://www.sport.fr/economie/airmax.html]air max femmes[/url], Resnick said. The lawsuit by Fendi said that WalMart has never purchased Fendi products and never asked Fendi if any of the items bearing its trademark were genuine. |
