Japan Patents Court

Some good, progressive news for Japan in a while – Japan’s first intellectual property disputes court.

The Government also planned to send lawyers and judges to Britain, Brussels and the US to study recent cases, and invite overseas legal experts to teach in Tokyo, Japanese cabinet sources said.

These things take time – and the U.S. is undergoing some serious IP-law issues currently – but hopefully we’ll see some more resolutions like this.
