Frozen! Recently, anonymous cases were shared, and hundreds of shops were frozen, including toy pistols, decompression key chains and wine racks.

In the early stage, many anonymous cases were hidden. In order to prevent the defendant’s funds from fleeing at the filing stage, both the plaintiff and the prosecution documents were hidden. Until recently, the seller’s account was frozen by TRO, or the relevant case information gradually surfaced. Even many sellers’ accounts are still confused after being restricted and frozen, and I don’t know where the infringement point is. Let’s review such cases with Xiaobian.

TOY GUN toy gun

In this case, the plaintiff’s brand has filed a case as early as August 30, and recently signed a TRO extension ban, which was extended to November 22. Until recently, many sellers asked Mai Jia with a picture of a gun if they knew this kind of patent, and the case gradually surfaced. After Xiaobian’s inquiry, the brand of the case came from Shenzhen, China, and registered two patents in May 2021, both of which were issued in December 2022. Patent numbers are: US D973790S and US D973791S respectively. The appearance of the two patents is very similar. The following figure shows the feedback from frozen sellers, and cross-border sellers can carefully identify them.
