Is it permissible for me to receive my money from my partner if I know that he will return the capital by selling counterfeit devices, relying on the fact that he will bear the sin?

You are permitted to reclaim your capital from your associate, even if he pays you from money he earned by selling devices whose sale is forbidden. This is because the prohibition of the sale pertains to his liability, and he is accountable for infringing upon the rights of companies owning the brand name and trademark. Not all of its price is unlawful for him.
