企业国外参展应注意的知识产权法律问题(中英文)/李俭(10)
在大型的国际展会上,国外企业如果发现知识产权侵权,一般会由律师出具警告信或者由法院发出临时禁令。律师出具的警告信内容包括对具体侵权行为的描述,要求对方限期停止侵权的声明,惩罚条款等。同时,常常附律师费用账单。中国展商如果接到此类警告信,首先要做两点判断:
On a large-sized international exhibition, if foreign enterprises find IPR infringement, first of all, they will entrust lawyer to present with warning letter or apply for issuance of temporary injunction by court. The warning letter provided by lawyer includes detailed description of tort act, statement of requiring the other party to stop infringement and punishment terms etc. Meanwhile, it will often be attached with bill for lawyer charge. If Chinese exhibitor receives such kind of warning letter, you shall first make two judgements:
第一, 是否存在展品侵权;
Firstly, define if your exhibited product has tort act or not;
第二, 标的值定得是否过高。
Secondly, if the value of target subject matter are set too high
如果认为警告有理,产品确实侵权,或存在侵权的可能性,可以有条件地签署;如果坚持自己没有侵权,则一定不能签署,还可以向对方发出反警告或向法院提交保护信。此外,签署了警告信的企业,需要承担权利人委托律师发警告的费用。对没收的侵权展品要求开具清单,并查看是否与被侵权展品吻合,以便作为今后提出诉讼的依据。
If the warning is regarded reasonable and product definitely infringes other’s IPR, or has the possibility to infringe, the product owner may conditionally sign the letter. If you think your product has not infringed other’s IPR, then you shall not sign the letter and on the contrary, you can issue counter-warning or submit letter of protection to court. In addition, if you signed the warning letter, you shall assume the charge arising from issuance of warning letter from lawyer entrusted by obligee. Product owner shall ask for inventory of confiscated infringing products and check if it is same as the infringed products, and keep it as the evidence for litigation later.
