Brief Introduction of Prioritized Examination of Patent Invalidation Proceedings in China
摘要
In recent years, the period from acceptance of an invalidation request by the Reexamination and Invalidation Examination Department to issuance of a decision on examination of the invalidation request continues to be shortened. However, since many patent invalidation cases involve civil infringement litigation proceedings, relevant parties still expect the period to be further shortened. To further improve service quality, on June 27, 2017 CNIPA published Methods for Management of Prioritized Examination of Patent Invalidation Proceedings (the Methods), which become effective on August 1, 2017, wherein contents regarding prioritized examination of invalidation request of patents, utility models and designs were added. At present, the Methods have already been enforced over two years. Some problems are hereby introduced briefly.
