In the season of golden September and silver harvest, in addition to the big-name law firms such as GBC and keith, many minority products have been entrusted to other law firms to hide their cases, and hundreds of cross-border stores have been frozen without paying attention. Today, Xiaobian compiled five cases, all of which are patent, trademark and copyright cases. Three cases at the end of September have been frozen by TRO, and cross-border sellers need to deal with them in time to avoid permanent freezing of accounts.

Brand profile:
Life Vac LLC is a medical device sales company, which mainly sells LiveVac first aid asphyxiation devices. There is a touching story behind the first-aid suffocation device developed by founder Arthur Lih. Lih overheard the story of a treasure mother who cried because her young son was accidentally stuck in an organ while eating grapes. Although Heimlich maneuver was taken to rescue her in time, she died because of ineffective treatment. The unpowered, non-invasive and portable suction device LifeVac was invented, which can be used to clear the upper respiratory tract obstruction, is very suitable for adults and children, and has the shortest suction time, safety and effectiveness. And applied for copyright and patent around 2015.
Interestingly, another company named DCSTAR INC applied for an invention patent in the United States for an emergency asphyxiation device with a very similar appearance on August 3, 2021, and it was certified on October 25, 2022.
As if they had agreed, the above two companies filed a case on April 14, 2023, freezing hundreds of cross-border seller accounts, and only recently did they make a default judgment. On October 16th, 2023, LiveVa filed another case to defend its rights.
