Paris Convention does not prohibit seizure of goods in transit

In HD Lee Company Inc v UAB Mita, the Supreme Court of Lithuania
has ruled that the provisions of Article 9 of the Paris Convention, which deal
with the seizure of goods in transit, are optional in nature and do not prohibit
customs authorities from seizing goods in transit. The court also confirmed
that parties that are simply transporting counterfeit goods can still be found
guilty of infringing trademark rights.
