China Law - Litigation IP - Cutting edge development for IP litigation in China

LawFuel - The Law Jobs and Legal NewsWire

5 June 2009 - International intellectual property (IP) consultancy, Rouse, is excited to announce the launch of a new analytical search tool, CIELA - China IP Litigation Analysis.

CIELA is a free-to-use, innovative website enabling IP owners and their counsel to evaluate IP litigation venues across China. Users can obtain statistics on IP rulings for the whole of China or focus on specific courts. With CIELA it is possible to quickly see which Chinese courts award higher damages, or conclude cases more quickly compared to other jurisdictions. CIELA can be accessed at www.ciela.cn.

The data in the CIELA website comes from 13 IP courts around China. Currently there are over 5,000 published rulings and IP judgments loaded into the database, but the geographical scope and number will continue to increase as more courts publish IP judgments.

Chris Bailey, Rouse’s Deputy China Country Manager said: “While there are existing IP law databases there is no other database that actually extracts data for statistical analysis. CIELA is the first of its kind and will fulfil a growing demand for hard data about IP litigation in China.

Rouse Chief Executive, Rupert Ross-Macdonald, added: “Rouse has built a large and very successful Chinese civil litigation practice. With the backing of CIELA we are now able to evaluate more effectively the prospects of litigating in the different jurisdictions within China.”

In addition to the online database, CIELA is supported by Rouse’s China Research Unit which can provide in-depth customized reports that go beyond the data available on the website. The research team can pinpoint and analyse judgments to a greater level of detail to find out how judges have assessed damages, and identify issues that have arisen in previous trials which potential litigants should be aware of. CIELA’s data analysis can even identify leading IP judges and lawyers.
