I guess if you are in the market for a purse, searching Google and in France you won't see an advertisement from Lois Vuitton's competitors.

Google is barred from using Louis Vuitton's trademarks in its advertising on all of its Web sites accessible from France, and Google was ordered to pay Louis Vuitton $94,139 (75,000 euros) in legal expenses and to publish the ruling in four news magazines and an online site, the statement said.

Mr. Vuitton is a part of a growing crowd according to News.com.

The company settled a case last September brought by auto insurance provider Geico, and still faces a lawsuit brought by American Blind and Wallpaper Factory.
