Statutory damages are available under 15 U.S.C. 1117(c) and (d). Statutory damages may be awarded against contributory infringers. Louis Vuitton Malletier, S.A. v. Akanoc Solutions, Inc., 658 F.3d 936, 944-45 (9th Cir.2011). A prevailing party who elects to receive statutory damages under § 1117(c) cannot also receive prejudgment interest under § 1117(b).
