Webinar: Intellectual property courts operating already as of 1 July 2020?

On 17 June 2020 at 10.00 a.m. you are welcome to participate in a free webinar entitled “Intellectual property courts already as of 1 July 2020?”

Everything suggests that 1 July 2020 will be the date of entry into force of the Act on amendment of the Code of Civil Procedure and certain other laws of 13 February 2020 (Dz. U. [Journal of Laws] of 2020, item 288, hereinafter: the “Act”). The regulations introduced in the Act with respect to proceedings in intellectual property matters provide an amendment which will allow a special adjudicating procedure to be applied in cases involving intellectual property. Legal professionals agree in their opinion that specialised courts for intellectual property will start operating in Poland.

The following matters, among other things, will be discussed during the webinar:

• What cases will be resolved by those specialised courts?
• What will be the location and the number of the courts?
• New procedural instruments facilitating the enforcement of claims
• Special actions – instruments for the defendant

Feel free to apply!
