确认不侵犯专利权之诉的受理条件——南京金兰湾贸易有限公司与陈静、浙江天猫网络有限公司确认不侵犯专利权纠纷案

Acceptance Conditions of Appeal for Af?rmation of Patent Non-Infringement

为了受到侵权诉讼威胁的当事人的利益,我国确立了确认不侵犯专利权诉讼制度。确认不侵犯专利权诉讼制度的关键是受理条件。最高人民法院在2009年的司法解释中规定了确认不侵犯专利权诉讼的前置程序是警告和催告。收到权利人发出的侵犯专利权的警告,书面催告权利人行使诉权,之后权利人既不撤回警告、又怠于行使诉权时,被警告人或者利害关系人才能提起确认不侵权之诉。

In order to protect the parties threatened by infringement lawsuits,China has established litigation appealing for affirmation of patent non-infringement,or in other words patent declaratory judgment.The key issue of this litigation system is the acceptance conditions.In the judicial interpretation of 2009,the Supreme People's Court stipulated warning and reminder are pre-procedures of this litigation system.After the right holder warned the infringement of the patent right,and the right holder was urged to exercise the right of action,if the right holder neither withdraws the warning nor files patent infringement lawsuit,the warned person or the interested party can file a lawsuit to confirm the non-infringement.
