希尼爾翻譯公司（www.uxiaohua.cn）2015年12月3日了解到：中國銀行若拒絕服從美國法庭的判決將被控賣假貨的客戶的信息交出來，將會面臨巨額罰款。The Bank of China will face a daily fine in the US unless it complies with a court request to give details of customers accused of selling fake goods.
The bank was held in contempt of court in Manhattan last week for refusing to turn over the records.

中國銀行上周被曼哈頓的一家法庭裁決為藐視法庭，由于拒絕提交客戶記錄。

The state-owned lender is appealing the civil contempt order and fine of $50,000 a day starting on 8 December.

這家國有銀行被控藐視法庭并將面臨從12月8日開始每天5000美元的罰款。

It said it would be violating China’s privacy law if it gave the information.

但是交出客戶信息又將會違反中國隱私保護法。

The records stem from a 2010 lawsuit by a group of luxury retailers including Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent that sued a group of Chinese companies for allegedly selling counterfeits goods like handbags.

這項裁決是由2010的一場訴訟導致的。包括Gucci和Yves Saint Laurent在內(nèi)的一些奢侈品商家控告一些中國公司涉嫌銷售假冒商品比如提包。

The luxury brands had asked US district judge Richard Sullivan to order the Bank of China (BOC) to pay $12m (?8m) to cover their losses from counterfeiting or impose a fine.

這些奢侈品牌要求美國地區(qū)法官Richard Sullivan勒令中國銀行賠付1200萬美元（800萬英鎊）來為他們因假貨蒙受的損失買單否則就會罰款。

The judge had initially ordered the bank to provide the customer information in 2011 and then renewed the order in September.

法官先是在2011年要求中國銀行提供客戶信息然后當年九月又修改了命令。

"BOC’s refusal to comply with US law, while it continues to receive the benefits attendant to its banking activity in the US, has inflicted a significant harm on plaintiffs and the general public," Mr Sullivan said.

“中國銀行拒絕服從美國法律，但又同時享受加入美國的融資活動帶來的利益，這樣的情況對原告和大眾都造成了嚴重損害。”Sullivan先生說。

"Only a large fine will have a coercive effect on BOC at this stage."

“現(xiàn)階段只有巨額罰款才能對中國銀行有強制力。”

The judge has also ordered the top-four Chinese lender to cover the retailers’ legal costs.

法官還眼球中國的四個最大的銀行也要補償奢侈品商的合法損失。

But the bank said the judge lacked the jurisdiction to force its compliance.

但是銀行稱法官缺乏司法管轄權(quán)。

The Bank of China is the country’s fourth biggest lender by assets and made a profit of nearly $28bn in 2014.

中國銀行是中國四個資產(chǎn)最多的銀行之一，2014年創(chuàng)造了將近280億美元利潤。
