Cartier International AG and others v British Sky Broadcasting Ltd and others (The Open Rights Group intervening) [2016] EWCA Civ 658, [2016] All ER (D) 30 (Jul)

The Court of Appeal dismissed appeals by the defendant internet service providers against orders that required them to block or attempt to block access to websites where counterfeit copies of the claimant luxury goods companies’ products were being sold. The judge had had jurisdiction to make the orders and he had identified and applied the principles correctly. A further appeal against an award of costs against the defendants was also dismissed.
