Best Answer

Enforcement of intellectual property rights is the responsibility of the owner of those rights, unless the violation is also a criminal offense, in which case the relevant law enforcement agencies would have jurisdiction upon the complaint by the owners.

For example, US Customs can seize goods with counterfeit trademarks, the FBI can arrest copyright pirates.
