What if the police catch the seller of fake goods?
Legal analysis: selling fake goods can be filed. Selling fake goods is suspected of producing and selling fake and inferior products and selling goods with counterfeit registered trademarks. The key is to consider the subjective intention and objective result of the actor. It is a crime for the actor to intentionally manufacture and sell fake and inferior products, and the sales amount reaches more than 50 thousand yuan as stipulated by law; The act of manufacturing and selling fake and shoddy products with a sales amount of less than 50,000 yuan is generally illegal and can be given administrative punishment by the administrative department for industry and commerce according to law. According to the judicial interpretation of 5438+0 in the Supreme People's Court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate on April 5, 2006, it is difficult or even impossible to find out the sales amount of fake and inferior products only by investigating the fake and inferior products themselves in practice. "If the fake and inferior products have not been sold and the value of the goods reaches more than three times the sales amount stipulated in the Criminal Law, they will be convicted and punished for the crime of producing and selling fake and inferior products (attempted)".
