论我国专利侵权纠纷行民并审制度

On the Concurrent Settlement System of the Relevant Civil Disputes in Patent Infringement Adm inistrative Procedure of China

我国《行政诉讼法》第六十一条确立的行政诉讼一并审理行民争议的制度能够增强行政、司法保护合力,实现专利侵权纠纷高效解决,充分保护专利权人合法权益。但现行知识产权法律法规尚无对专利侵权纠纷行民并审制度的规定,实践中亦少有一并审理的案例,该制度事实上尚未“激活”。对此,法律法规及指导性案例应针对专利侵权纠纷特点,从诉讼性质、适用条件、审理模式、证据规则等方面进行细化规定,以推动并审制度在专利侵权行政裁决行政诉讼中的应用,完善专利侵权行政裁决的司法救济。

The provisions of Article 61 of the Administrative Litigation Law outline the system of the concurrent settlement of the relevant civil dispute in an administrative procedure, which can alleviate the contradiction between administrative protection and judicial protection while strengthening administrative protection and judicial protection. Thus, patent infringement disputes can be solved efficiently and patent protection can be enhanced. Nevertheless, as the current laws and regulations concerning intellectual property have no relevant content, the system can hardly be fully applied into practice. On the basis of the value of concurrent settlement system and characteristics of patent infringement disputes, laws and regulations should be elaborated from four aspects, including the lawsuit character, applicable conditions, the processes of civil litigation and evidence rules. In this way, the application of the concurrent settlement of patent infringement administrative adjudication can be promoted and the judicial review of patent infringement administrative adjudication can be improved.
