Feel free to utilize our Compilation of the Important Court Rulings on Trade Secret Cases
2020/01/22 TaiwanTrade secret protection is becoming increasingly important. To assist businesses in catching up with Taiwan’s relevant judicial practices and trends, TIPO studied the civil and criminal cases relating to trade secrets from January 1, 2011 to June 30, 2019 from the courts of all levels and drew references from the Intellectual Property Court. A total of 76 cases, 57 civil and 18 criminal, were selected for making excerpts. Such include the legal battle between Largan Precision Co. and Ability Opto-Electronics Technology Co., the dispute about a cleanroom suit patent between ASE Inc. and its supplier, and a case about trade secret protection for Dairen Chemical Corp. Based on topics such as the three elements of trade secret; the civil liability, criminal liability, and evidence-keeping procedures for trade secret infringement; and confidentiality orders, TIPO has also created a compilation of the important court rulings on trade secret cases in Taiwan. The content of the compiled cases is available in the section on trade secret protection at TIPO’s website. All members of society are encouraged to utilize it.
