<div id="readability-page-1">LV alleged in the suit, which was lodged in mid-September and had a case conference on Tuesday, that a ValueMax Retail outlet on Yishun Street had earlier sold or offered to sell two pieces of jewelry bearing signs that were identical or similar to at least one of its trademarks, as reported by The Business Times.The French luxury house accused the retailer of infringing on its trademark rights and misrepresenting the items as LV products or suggesting that there was an economic association or relationship between the items and the brand.It claimed to have suffered or is likely to suffer loss and damage as a result and sought statutory damages for the infringements, which are capped at S$100,000 (US$77,380) per type of goods or services involved and S$1 million in total, unless actual losses exceeding that amount can be proven.It also demanded the delivery and forfeiture of all goods and materials, as well as full disclosure of information connected to the alleged counterfeits.<table><tbody><tr><td><img src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://vcdn1-english.vnecdn.net/2025/12/18/2024-12-06t033036z-1542228838-3977-6763-1766030692.jpg/query-ZHByPTEmZml0PWNyb3AmaD0wJnE9MTAwJnM9OHhVODByNUZIVm9VNHV5aW9OZGpkQSZ3PTY4MA?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="680" height="456" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://vcdn1-english.vnecdn.net/2025/12/18/2024-12-06t033036z-1542228838-3977-6763-1766030692.jpg/query-ZHByPTEmZml0PWNyb3AmaD0wJnE9MTAwJnM9OHhVODByNUZIVm9VNHV5aW9OZGpkQSZ3PTY4MA"/></td> </tr><tr><td> A Louis Vuitton Christmas shop display is pictured along Orchard Road in Singapore, Dec. 4, 2024.
