Bose stumbled upon a web store where the ear pieces were being offered for less than 50% of the price. Naturally Bose suspected that an infringement was at hand.
The court declared that there was indeed an infringement on the design rights of Bose, the ear pieces on the website were similar to those registered by Bose as a design. All further trade in the ear pieces on the website was therefore prohibited. Since the procedure was based on a European registration this ban is effective in the entire European Union.
