Neptun Seeks Penalties for Violations of ITC Consent Order on Fluorescent Lamp Imports

Neptun Light filed a petition for an International Trade Commission enforcement proceeding, alleging that MaxLite continued to import and sell infringing dimmable compact fluorescent lamps (337-TA-830) despite a 2012 consent order. According to the complaint, a lawyer representing Neptun was able to order the products online well after the consent order was effective. When the products arrived, they were branded "MaxLite" and said they were made in China, Neptun said. Neptun is requesting a permanent cease and desist order, as well as monetary penalties of the greater of the value of the good, or $100,000, for each day the order has been violated.
