Business breakfast “Parallel imports in the light of Judgment No. 8-P of the RF Constitutional Court dated 13 February 2018”, Moscow
Judgment No. 8-P of the RF Constitutional Court on parallel import issues was published on 14 February. Two months previously, on 13 December 2017 the Commercial court of the City of Moscow issued a Decision on case on А40-159212/17-122-1403, which was also directly related to parallel imports.
Both these court orders have received extensive coverage both in the mass media, and also in professional legal publications, as they potentially limit the options of rights holders to combat parallel imports.
In connection with this fact, we propose at our business breakfast that we analyse together the conclusions drawn both by the Commercial Court of First Instance and also the Constitutional Court; determine the specific path that judicial practice might take and propose possible mechanisms to continue the fight against parallel importers. During the business breakfast we will also touch upon general issues regarding the protection of intellectual property.
Please note that the event will be held in Russian language.
