Abstract

Article 71 of the current Patent Law of the People’s Republic of China introduces a punitive damages system, which clearly stipulates that punitive damages can be imposed for serious acts of intentional infringement of patent rights, which shows that the subjective element for applying punitive damages in the field of patent infringement is “intentional”. However, the current law does not clearly define “intentional”, making it difficult to accurately apply the punitive damages provision in patent infringement judicial cases. The accurate determination of the subjective application requirements for punitive damages for patent infringement is a topic worthy of our in-depth discussion.
