Study on the Judicial Procedures Currently in Place in China for the Treatment of Intellectual Property Cases

This Study aims to analyse some aspects of judicial procedures prevailing in China, for example, the evidence, service of documents, provisional measures, trial, interaction between administrative, criminal and civil procedures. These rules are not specific to the treatment of intellectual property cases, but IP cases show why it is important for foreign stakeholders to know the rules. Some of these rules apply specifically to foreign litigants, but most of them apply to all litigants, without distinction.
