Intellectual Property Rights

http://www.iipa.com/ INTERNATIONAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ALLIANCE - 2001 SPECIAL 301 REPORT
http://isdvapl.upv.cz/ Czech Industrial Property Office.

Existing legislation guarantees protection of all forms of property rights, both intellectual and physical.  Secured interests in land (mortgages) and in personal property are permitted.  Government subsidy programs are making mortgage financing more accessible, and consumers are becoming more used to using both secured and unsecured forms of credit.  According to U.S. lawyers in the Czech Republic, enforcing judgments and foreclosing security interests in land and personal property can still be difficult in practice.  A new act on Judicial Executors entered into force in 2001 and 89 executors were appointed.  The act is intended to bring greater effectiveness to enforcement of court judgments. The total number of judges was increased during 2001 as a means of addressing deficiencies.
 
Major amendments to the Commercial Code came into force in 2001 that strengthen protection of creditors and minority shareholders.  The new law includes detailed provisions for mergers and places time limits on decisions by the authorities on registering of companies.  New laws on auditing and on accounting were also enacted.  These laws include the use of international accounting standards (IAS) for consolidated corporate groups.
 
The Czech Republic is a signatory to the Bern, Paris, and Universal Copyright Conventions.  In 2001, the government ratified the WIPO Copyright Treaty and the WIPO Treaty on Performances and Phonograms.  Domestic legislation protects all intellectual property rights, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, and semiconductor chip layout design.  Amendments to the trademark law and the copyright law have brought Czech law into compliance with relevant EU directives and WTO TRIPs requirements.  Changes to the civil procedure code, effective January 1, 2001, provide for ex parte search and seizure in enforcement actions.  The Czech Republic increased copyright protection for literary works from 50 to 70 years, effective December 1, 2000, and boosted the powers of the customs service and the Czech Commercial Inspection to seize counterfeit goods.  Amendments to the criminal code adopted in 2001 are expected to speed up criminal prosecutions for IPR violations.  Based on these improvements, in 2001 the U.S. Government removed the Czech Republic from the Special 301 Watch List.  The Embassy continues to work with U.S. industry and Czech government officials to further improve enforcement of intellectual property rights
