BEIJING, April 22 (Xinhua) -- Chinese courts will step up judicial work to facilitate the country's antimonopoly drive, says a plan on judicial protection for intellectual property rights (IPR) for the 2021-2025 period.
Issued Thursday by the Supreme People's Procuratorate, or China's apex court, the document lists key jobs on judicial protection for IPR during the upcoming five years.
Courts will strengthen work on antimonopoly trials and the trial of unfair competition cases, and judicial interpretations will be issued to help curb monopolistic conduct and unfair competition and promote fair competition, reads the plan.
It foresees further efforts to see that monopoly disputes in the internet sector are properly handled, anti-monopoly adjudication rules relevant to internet platforms improve and disorderly expansion of capital is prevented.
