§ 70.
Remedies. Any owner of a mark registered under this Act may proceed by suit to enjoin the manufacture, use, display or sale of any counterfeits or imitations thereof and any court of competent jurisdiction may grant injunctions to restrain such manufacture, use, display, or sale as may be by the court deemed just and reasonable, and may require the defendants to pay to such owner all profits derived from or all damages suffered by reason of such wrongful manufacture, use, display, or sale or both; and the court may also order that any such counterfeits or imitations in the possession or under the control of any defendant in the case be delivered to an officer of the court, or to the complainant, to be destroyed. The court in its discretion, may enter judgment for an amount not to exceed 3 times the profits and damages or reasonable attorneys' fees of the prevailing party, or both, in those cases in which the court finds the other party committed the wrongful acts with knowledge or in bad faith or otherwise as according to the circumstances of the case. The enumeration of any right or remedy in this Act shall not affect a registrant's right to prosecute under any penal law of this State. (Source: P.A. 90-231, eff. 1-1-98.)
