after multiple warnings and penalties they are found guilty in court and told to "Stop right now or we will call mommy!"

The $80k fine is a slap on the wrist and borderline insulting considering they disregarded the previous citations/violations and kept right on with it . . .

Huh, I thought it was pretty much impossible to enforce a TM internationally.  Did they do this in the Chinese legal system then?
