Entrusted by a Chinese individual patentee, Wang lianxi, Unitalen filed two civil suits concerning the ownership dispute of two Chinese medicine patents. The cases lasted for a period of 3 years involving 6 public hearings, one signature verification and several suspension applications. In the court verdict, it is determined that

1) The transfer of the patents at dispute from the plaintiff to the defendant was based on the Application for Change in Bibliographic Data and Agreement of Change submitted by the defendant, but according to the signature verification opinion, the Agreement of Change was not signed by the plaintiff; and there is no evidence proving the plaintiff had entrusted any third party to sign the agreement. Therefore, plaintiff’s request that the transfer is invalid shall be upheld.

2) Since the first transfer from the plaintiff to the defendant is invalid, the defendant shall have no right to dispose the patents at dispute. Therefore, the transfer from the defendant to a third-party company and from this company to another company are also invalid.

Accordingly, the court decides that the two patents at dispute shall belong to the plaintiff, Unitalen client, and that the transfer of the patents from the plaintiff to the defendant as well as the further transfers shall be invalid.
