宣告专利权无效请求应向专利复审委员会提出,专利复审委员会经过审查后作出该专利权有效或无效的决定,当事人对专利复审委员会的决定不服的,可以向人民法院提起诉讼。但在实践中专利复审委员会法律地位并不明确,由此引起法院的司法救济应属行政诉讼还是民事诉讼的争议。文章结合我国现行的专利法律体系,探讨宣告专利权无效案件中相关程序的性质,明确专利复审委员会与知识产权法院的程序衔接,为司法实践提供参考。
The announcement of the invalidation of a patent right shall be filed with the Patent Reexamination Board. After the Patent Reexamination Board has examined and made a decision on whether the patent right is valid or invalid, the party refusing to accept the decision of the Patent Reexamination Board may institute a lawsuit in the people’s court. However, in practice, the legal status of the Patent Reexamination Board is not clear. As a result, the judicial remedies of the court should be in administrative lawsuits or civil lawsuits. Based on the current patent law system in our country, this article explores the nature of the relevant procedures in the case of invalidation of patent right, clarifies the connection between the Patent Reexamination Board and the procedure of intellectual property court, and provides a reference for judicial practice.
