In the issue 1/2020 we recommend - inter alias - the COMMENTARY TO THE JUDGMENT OF THE COURT OF JUSTICE
OF THE EUROPEAN UNION IN CASE C-172/18 AMS NEVE by MAREK ŚWIERCZYŃSKI

Abstract:
The AMS Neve judgment presents an important step forward in the classification of the connecting factor of the place of infringement under the EU Trade Mark Regulation. The judgement concerns Article 97 of Regulation 207/2009, which is no longer in force, but is
fully in line with the current Article 125 of Regulation 2017/1001. The EU High Court rightly pointed out that the court having jurisdiction over the place where the harmful event occurred is best positioned to decide on the case. This is justified by the proximity to the subject matter of the dispute and the ease of taking evidence. The EU High Court adopted a liberal position. In this judgment, it allowed for a broad access to the courts by the IP right holders. This interpretation appears to stem from the need to increase protection of IP rights in cases of their online infringements. The EU Trade Mark Regulation provides additional arguments for this liberal interpretation. A modification of the existing approach consists in adapting the jurisdictional rules to contemporary, modern forms of exploitation of intangible assets on the Internet. The EU High Court pointed out that adopting a narrow (restrictive) interpretation of the jurisdictional rules would lead to an increased risk that the infringers would operate in the territory of a given country in order to avoid the jurisdiction of the courts. This would mean that the special jurisdiction rules would lose their alternative nature compared to the general jurisdiction rules.

Do not miss the article on INTERMEDIARY CONTRACTS CONCERNING GOODS AND SERVICES: GENERAL PART AND COMMERCIAL AGENCY CONTRACT written by EWA ROTT-PIETRZYK, MATEUSZ GROCHOWSKI.

Abstract: The text presents draft provisions on commercial intermediary agreements, prepared within the framework of the Academic Project of the Civil Code. The rules encompass the general part of commercial intermediary agreements, as well as one particular contract: commercial agency. The former element is entirely novel from the perspective of the existing provisions of the Polish civil law, which do not contain any comparably general set of rules dedicated to intermediary contracts. In the latter respect, the draft proposes a few alterations to the existing rules on commercial agency. They aim to remedy the deficiencies of the existing rules that has been evidenced through practical functioning of agency contracts (identified by empirical studies), as well as through the case law of Polish courts of various level. The proposed rules are accompanied with motives that provide more deepened rationale for the choices between various possible solutions to theregulatory needs in the domain of intermediary agreements. They also explain the background of the draft provisions in the EU law and the CJEU decisions, as well as in the relevant sets of model rules, with particular regard to the Draft Common Frame of Reference.
