知识产权权利冲突新探

关于知识产权权利冲突的解决,无论是学术界的主流观点,还是人民法院的审判实践,都强调以在先权利的原则作为解决冲突的首要原则.其实,知识产权的"无形性"这一重要特征决定了在后权利人即使尽了合理的注意义务,也可能进入在先权利人的权利范围,因此,在权利冲突的解决问题上不宜过分强调尊重在先权利.在解决知识产权权利冲突时,既要坚持尊重在先权利的原则,也应遵循国家利益和社会利益最大化原则,在保护在先权利人的合法权益的同时,应对在先权利给予必要限制.

The New Exploration of Intellectual Property Right

As regards solving right conflict of intellectual property right, no matter what is the major view of the academia or the trial practice of the people's court, all emphasize that respecting the principle of the priority right should be regarded as primary principle to solve conflict. In fact, one important characteristic of intellectual peoperty right- "intangiblity" decides that the posteriority obligee has a chance to intrude right range of the priority obligee even if he fulfils reasonable attention obligation. So, we should not emphasize on respecting the priority right excessively on problems of right conflict solving. When right solving the conflict of intellectual property right, we should not only insist on respecting the principle of priority right, but also comply with the principle of maximizing national interest and social interest. The priority right should be exerted some necessary restraints while the priority obligee's legitimate rights and interests are protected.
