Online Dispute Resolution in the Field of Intellectual Property: Russian and Foreign Experience

In the modern world, taking into account scientific and technological progress and the need for innovative development, many states are improving their legislation and approaches to regulating relations in the field of intellectual property by modernizing the justice system. With the use of Internet technologies, it becomes possible to carry out various settlement procedures, both judicial and extrajudicial. Due to the intangible nature of intellectual property objects, online dispute resolution in this area increases the level of protection of rights, expands access to justice, and the effectiveness of resolving disputes. In addition, the use of the blockchain distributed registry system allows you to create a platform for storing information related to the circulation of intellectual property. The experience of Russia, China, Thailand and Canada in the field of online resolution of disputes arising from infringement of intellectual property rights is studied. It is noted that a common understanding of the protection of copyright, as well as objects of industrial property, based on the provisions of fundamental international treaties, as well as modern technologies, including those built on the basis of artificial intelligence, with their correct structured application, will allow resolving such disputes promptly in pre-trial order, thereby unloading the judicial system. At the same time, their clear correlation with the provisions of international agreements is necessary.
