Vuifton v.Swap Shop case goes to trial
BY PAULA MCMAHON
Sun Sentinel
Coming Monday toa
South Florida courtroom:A
battle royal between luxury
brand Louis Vuitton and the
Swap Shop fleamarket over
designer knockofls,
PrestonHp.tui might have
thought the fashion indust
rywas done withhimabout
ayearago when hesettled
similar allegations byCoach
for $5.5 million—anamount
the eccentric Swap Shop
owner called "pocket
change"at the titnpi
This time,Henn vows he
will fight the expensive
French designer brand's
rlattTKagainst him,hiswife
Bettyand then:Iconicbusi
ness on Sunrise Boulevard
inLauderbUl.
Louis Vuitton is seeking
millions ofdollarsintheffed-
eral civil lawsuit,alleging
that the Hetms contributed
to die counterfeiting of its
trademark designs and
products by continuing to
lease space toflea market
tenants they knew,or
should have known,were
selling fake Louis Vuitton
hems.
Henn,84,told the Sun
Sentinel he regrets settling
the Coach lawsuit in De
cember 2013 after }ust two
days of testimony andsaid
he plans to fighttheLouis
Vuitton case all the way,
though hewon't revealtrial
strategy.
'If you were playing po
ker,would youlet someone
see your hand while you're
still playing?"Henn said.
Henncould be playinga
risky hand.If jurors side
with Louis Vuitton,Henn
might havetopaydamages
between &C00 and $2 mil
lion fox eachproventrade
mark violation.
Legal experts say each
suitcase,handbagorwallet
could count for several vio
lations.The design on the
leather or fabric,the label,
theclasp andotherparts can
each count asa separate
breachandthe penalties can
swifth/addup.
Louis Vuitton has not
specifiedhow many possi
ble trademark -violations it
alleges took place in the
four-year periodcovered by
the lawsuit.The luxury
brand sellsluggage,hand
bags,wallets,clothing and
other items for hundreds
and thousands of dollars
The casewillbe closely
watched by other fashion
and luxury brands because
it is so unusual for these
kinds ofcontributorytrade
mark lawsuits to make it to
trial.Defendants usually
settlebecause the stakes are
so high,legalexpertssaid.

Louis Vuitton estimated
in court records that the
Lauderhill property alone
"is a multimiilion dollar
business that is worth an
eight-or nine-figure for
