This may not be my area, but when you say number of IP's what do you mean please?

Intellectual properties

So she owns IP and someone else is trying to sell them to others, without her consent I assume?

correct

Is it a criminal offence - no.

This is a civil matter and the police would not get involved.

I am sorry thus is not the answer you want and certainly not the one I want to give but I have a duty to be honest.

Your wife would need to issue proceedings in the county court to stop this.

Can I clarify anything for you about this today please?
