农业地理标志证明商标侵权诉讼的司法考察

A Judicial Study on Infringement Litigation of Certification Marks of Agro-product Geographical Indications

证明商标作为重要的知识产权,在保护农业地理标志方面发挥着独特且重要的作用。农业地理标志一经证明商标保护就得到了迅速的发展,带动了农业产业化的高质量发展。但是,随之而来的假冒仿冒农业地理标志证明商标的侵权行为也同时盛行,司法中维权诉讼显得步履维艰,尤其是提起诉讼主体单一、侵权行为认定标准不一、损害赔偿存在不足等问题十分突出。保护好农业地理标志证明商标,司法保护至关重要。扩宽起诉主体范围、引入公益诉讼、统一侵权行为判定标准、规范损害赔偿方式、提高赔偿数额等策略,可以完善农业地理标志证明商标的司法保护。

As an important intellectual property right,certification marks play a special and important role in protecting the Agro-product Geographical Indications.If protected by certification marks,the indications can get rapid development,and drive the high quality development of agricultural industrialization.However,the subsequent infringement of counterfeit certification marks of the indications is also prevalent,and it is difficult to protect the right in judicial litigation,especially for the problems such as the single subject of litigation,different standards for infringement recognition and inadequate tort compensation.Therefore,judicial protection is essential under such circumstances,and it can be improved by enlarging the scope of prosecution subject,introducing public interest litigation,unifying the standards for infringement recognition,standardizing the ways of tort compensation and increasing the amount of compensation.
