📰 It was decided in Chanel v. Melwani2 International Sdn Bhd, Lachmandas Ishwarlal Melwani & Ang Chong Leng, that an individual can be made liable for a Company’s Trademark Infringement. Courts are more willing to lift the corporate veil where it is justified. Hence, a director who continues an infringement to be conducted in their company can be made liable although legally both director and the company are treated as a separate legal entity.
