Features: Since the implementation of the intellectual property protection system in China, the people's courts have been engaged in intellectual property adjudication work for nearly 20 years. Courts at all levels and in various regions have adjudicated a large number of intellectual property cases. To summarize the experience of the people's courts in intellectual property adjudication from both theoretical and practical perspectives, provide references for future intellectual property adjudication work, and meet the challenges brought by "accession to the WTO" to the intellectual property adjudication work of the people's courts, this book was compiled. It showcases the judges' reflections on the current state of intellectual property adjudication practice, existing issues, and their solutions. This book is edited by Judge Cheng Yongshun, Vice President of the Third Civil Tribunal of the Beijing Higher People's Court, a senior judge long engaged in intellectual property adjudication in China, who was named one of the "50 Most Influential Intellectual Property Figures in the World" by the UK magazine Intellectual Property Management. The authors are all judges from the people's courts who have adjudicated 27 cases in recent years, divided into five types: computer software copyright disputes, computer network domain name disputes, online works disputes, and other five categories. From five parts—[Case Introduction], [Key Points of the Parties' Disputes], [First Instance Court's Adjudication Result], [Second Instance Court's Adjudication Result], and [Judge's Comment]—the book provides a detailed analysis of the basic situation of the cases and the judges' specific thinking in adjudicating the cases, reflecting the high theoretical level and adjudication quality of China's intellectual property judges.
