Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

Lacoste vs china crocodile trademark

Can I legally sell the China

Crocodile polo shirts in the

USA. More to the point can I

sell these shirts on ebay if

I put down that these are NOT

Lacoste Polo shirts. The

crocodile faces the opposite

way then the Lacoste polo shirt. I know there was

a court decision on this but I'm having trouble understanding the decision. Can I get in trouble for selling these type of polo shirts. I understand Lacoste has hired attorneys based in NYC just for this reason of

counterfit Lacoste polo shirts.

Thank you in advance. Tony K
