| Description: | The article is devoted to the study of judicial expert activity as a tool for identification of shortcomings in intellectual property legislation, in particular in the field of industrial property.Systematization of legislation in the field of industrial property is one of the forms of legislative improvement. Systematization involves lawmaking activities aimed at eliminating previously identified legislative deficiencies.One of the tools for identifying legislative shortcomings is the study of law enforcement activities. Unfortunately, law enforcement activities only consider compliance with existing legal provisions and do not consider the problems created by the absence or incompleteness of existing legal provisions.Judicial expert activity in the field of intellectual property has its own unique properties related to the special knowledge of judicial experts. The subject of a judicial expert in the field of intellectual property is both the study of the results of intellectual and creative activity in intangible form and the objects in which these results are embodied. The task of a judicial expert in this area is also to study the legal nature of these objects. These features of judicial expertise in the field of intellectual property together lead to the possibility of identifying deficiencies in the field of industrial property.As an example, the article analyses the infringement of patent rights, which includes direct infringement and indirect infringement. According to the current legislation, there is only a direct infringement of patent rights in Ukraine. Direct infringement involves copying a patented product as it is patented. Indirect infringement also includes additionalconditions for infringement, for example, manufacturing the main part of the product without one element. This element can be added to the product later. This leads to unlawful circumvention of the patented invention. The situation described above was identified during judicial activities.As a proposal to improve the legislation in the field of industrial property, it is necessary to define indirect infringement of patent rights in national legislation. Such definition can be made either by amending the current legislation or by systematizing the industrial property legislation. Стаття присвячена дослідженню судово-експертної діяльності для виявлення можливих недоліків чинного законодавства з охорони прав промислової власності. Проаналізовано основні підходи до систематизації законодавства, зокрема тих, що передбачають правотворчу діяльність. Обґрунтовано доцільність використання результатів судово-експертної діяльності та наведено приклад, який ілюструє виявлення неповноти визначення порушення патентних прав, а саме відсутність непрямого порушення патентних прав. Надано пропозиції з включення положень щодо непрямого порушення патентних прав до чинного законодавства. |
