USITC to review order on Mahindra and Mahindra Roxor

Sentinel Digital Desk

New Delhi: Mahindra and Mahindra (M&M) on Thursday said that the US International Trade Commission (USITC) will review part of the initial determination on the complaint filed by Fiat Chrysler Automobile ANV, including that on the infringement of the trade dress of Jeep.

In November, an administrative law judge of the USITC found that the Roxor model of Mahindra violates the “trade dress” of Fiat Chrysler Automobile ANV’s (FCA) Jeep. The judge has also recommended an “exclusion” order prohibiting the import of Roxor parts and a “cease-and-desist” order prohibiting the sale of any already-imported Roxor parts.

Mahindra in a regulatory filing on Thursday said: “The US International Trade Commission (ITC) has intimated on January 22, 2020, that it has chosen to review parts of the Initial Determination including those relating to the validity and infringement of the trade dress claimed by FCA, and the importation findings made by the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ).” (IANS)
