US patent litigation has always been the main battlefield for international patent litigation. After the implementation of the American Inventions Act (AIA) in 2011, the Inter Partes Review(IPR) has become a common procedure for defendants in patent infringement litigation. Because IPR has both judicial and administrative characteristics, and is governed by the United States Patent Trial and Appeals Board (PTAB), it forms a dual-track system for determining the validity of patents with the patent invalidation process in patent litigation in the Federal Court. Because the procedures of the two systems are different in terms of schedules and regulations, there will be interactions between them. There are also estoppel regulations on the subject and the object, causing some conflicts and competition. This thesis uses comparative analysis of laws and regulations and collected relevant case explanations to explain the application of relevant laws and regulations in practical judgments, and finally provides suggestions on litigation strategies for the parties.參考文獻 一、 中文資料(一) 著作1. 王承守、鄧穎懋,美國專利訴訟攻防策略運用,初版,2004年11月(二) 期刊論文1. 劉國讚,美國專利無效之訴訟與複審制度之研究,智慧財產權月刊,89期,頁5-32,2006年五月2. 劉懿嫻,美國專利法非顯而易知性之新觀點:相同條件下的客觀指標,科技法學評論,7卷2期,頁181-219,2010年12月3. 尹守信,淺析美國專利法上之非顯而易知性要件,智慧財產權月刊,第84期,頁128-146,2005年12月4. 潘世光,美國專利無效訴訟之第三者效力研究-論美國最高法院 1971 年Blonder-Tongue 判決,智慧財產權月刊,89期,頁44-47,2006年5月5. 彭國洋,專利經撤銷確定對於專利授權契約的影響,專利師,第十九期,頁89-92,2014年10月6. 楊智傑,美國與台灣專利民事侵權訴訟爭點效之發展與爭議—兼論台灣專利無效雙軌制之困境,交大法學評論,第3期,頁102, 103, 2018年4月7. 楊智傑,黃婷翊,美國專利複審程序及Cuozzo Speed Technologies, LLC v.

After the implementation of the American Inventions Act (AIA) in 2011, the Inter Partes Review(IPR) has become a common procedure for defendants in patent infringement litigation. Because IPR has both judicial and administrative characteristics, and is governed by the United States Patent Trial and Appeals Board (PTAB), it forms a dual-track system for determining the validity of patents with the patent invalidation process in patent litigation in the Federal Court. Because the procedures of the two systems are different in terms of schedules and regulations, there will be interactions between them. There are also estoppel regulations on the subject and the object, causing some conflicts and competition. This thesis uses comparative analysis of laws and regulations and collected relevant case explanations to explain the application of relevant laws and regulations in practical judgments, and finally provides suggestions on litigation strategies for the parties. en_US dc.description.tableofcontents 謝辭…………………………………………………………………………………..i摘要………………………………………………………………………………….iiAbstract……………………………………………………………………………...iii目次………………………………………………………………………………… iv圖次………………………………………………………………………………….vii第一章 緒論………………………………………………………………………..1第一節 研究動機……………………………………………………………..1第一項 多方複審程序統計數據………………………………………..1第二項 多方複審程序案件與專利訴訟的關聯分析…………………..4第二節 研究目的……………………………………………………………..5第三節 研究方法與架構……………………………………………………..6第四節 研究範圍與限制……………………………………………………..7第二章 美國專利侵權訴訟中的專利無效程序…………………………………..9第一節 美國專利侵權訴訟程序……………………………………………..9第二節 專利訴訟中提出專利無效的時點與要件…………………………..15第一項 專利無效法源……………………………………………………16第二項 專利無效抗辯時點………………………………………………17第三項 專利無效抗辯要件………………………………………………17第三節 舉證責任與舉證程度………………………………………………..24第一項 提出證據的責任及證明責任與舉證程度………………………25第二項 專利無效要件的舉證原則………………………………………26第四節 判決效力……………………………………………………………..30第一項 專利無效之對世效力……………………………………………30第二項 專利無效的溯及既往問題………………………………………32第五節 專利無效相關之禁反言規定………………………………………..34第一項 主體相關禁反言…………………………………………………34第二項 客體相關禁反言…………………………………………………35第三章 美國多方複審制度……………………………………………………..37第一節 管轄單位與審理程序………………………………………………..37第二節 請求之要件…………………………………………………………..43第三節 請求時效規定………………………………………………………..46第四節 舉證責任與舉證程度………………………………………………..51第一項 提出證據的責任…………………………………………………52第二項 舉證程度…………………………………………………………55第五節 救濟制度……………………………………………………………..57第六節 對相關訴訟之影響…………………………………………………..59第一項 多方複審程序對進行中的專利侵權訴訟的影響……………....59第二項 多方複審程序做成最終書面決定後對未判決專利侵權訴訟的影響……61第三項 多方複審程序做成最終書面決定後對已判決專利侵權訴訟的影響……62第四項 第三方提出系爭專利之多方複審程序對專利侵權訴訟的影響…………62第七節 禁反言規定…………………………………………………………..66第四章 雙軌制之衝突與競合---以相關判例探討………………………..69第一節 對於請求項的解讀美國法院與PTAB立場之不同……………….69第二節 請求項的修改……………………………………………………….72第三節 IPR請求權與利害關係人揭露問題………………………………..75第一項 實質利益當事人或者利害關係人的判斷………………………75第二項 未盡揭露利害關係人義務而駁回………………………………76第三項 專利讓與人禁反言………………………………………………77第四項 利害關係人認定時點……………………………………………78第五項 實質利益當事人揭露不影響申請日……………………………80第四節 禁反言的交互影響…………………………………………………..81第一項 隨附禁反言………………………………………………………81第二項 爭點禁反言………………………………………………………83第三項 實體產品是否構成禁反言………………………………………84第五章 對於涉訟企業之建議…………………………………………..87第一節 訴訟策略與時程控管………………………………………………..87第二節 證據搜集與論述之控管……………………………………………..92第六章 結論與建議…………………………………………………………..94參考文獻……………………………………………………………………………..95 zh_TW dc.format.extent 1814239 bytes - dc.format.mimetype application/pdf - dc.source.uri (資料來源) http://thesis.lib.nccu.edu.tw/record/#G0102961028 en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) 專利 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 多方複審程序 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 專利無效 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 專利侵權訴訟 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) Patent en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Patent infringement lawsuit en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Inter partes review en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) PTAB en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Patent invalidation en_US dc.title (題名) 美國專利侵權訴訟中專利無效程序與多方複審制度之比較研究 zh_TW dc.title (題名) Research on Patent Invalidate Process of Patent Infringe Lawsuit and Inter Partes Review and Comparison Therebetween en_US dc.type (資料類型) thesis en_US dc.relation.reference (參考文獻) 一、 中文資料(一) 著作1. 王承守、鄧穎懋,美國專利訴訟攻防策略運用,初版,2004年11月(二) 期刊論文1. 劉國讚,美國專利無效之訴訟與複審制度之研究,智慧財產權月刊,89期,頁5-32,2006年五月2. 劉懿嫻,美國專利法非顯而易知性之新觀點:相同條件下的客觀指標,科技法學評論,7卷2期,頁181-219,2010年12月3. 尹守信,淺析美國專利法上之非顯而易知性要件,智慧財產權月刊,第84期,頁128-146,2005年12月4. 潘世光,美國專利無效訴訟之第三者效力研究-論美國最高法院 1971 年Blonder-Tongue 判決,智慧財產權月刊,89期,頁44-47,2006年5月5. 彭國洋,專利經撤銷確定對於專利授權契約的影響,專利師,第十九期,頁89-92,2014年10月6. 楊智傑,美國與台灣專利民事侵權訴訟爭點效之發展與爭議—兼論台灣專利無效雙軌制之困境,交大法學評論,第3期,頁102, 103, 2018年4月7. 楊智傑,黃婷翊,美國專利複審程序及Cuozzo Speed Technologies, LLC v.
