New IP Court


The Ordinance no. 84/2012, of March 29, 2012, has installed the First Chamber of the Intellectual Property Court, constituted by one judge.

This Court has initiated its functions on March 30, 2012. However, legal proceedings that have been initiated prior to the court installation will kept being judged by the courts in which they are currently pending.

The Law that created this Court predicts that a Second Chamber will be created once the workflow justifies it.
