Summary

Existing law makes it a misdemeanor or a felony for a person to willfully manufacture, intentionally sell, or knowingly possess for sale any counterfeit registered trademark, as specified. Existing law also requires the court, in any action under those provisions resulting in a conviction or a plea of nolo contendere, to order the forfeiture and destruction of all of those marks and matter bearing the marks, and order the disposition of all devices for manufacturing, reproducing, transporting, or assembling those marks, used in connection thereof. This bill would authorize the court, upon law enforcement request and consent from the specific registrants, to consider a motion to have the goods, not including recordings or audiovisual works, as defined, donated to a nonprofit organization for the purpose of distributing the goods to persons living in poverty at no charge to the persons served by the organization.
