China to open anti-piracy court-BBC

From BBC (link)

The Supreme Court has named a Judicial Court of Intellectual Property to address cases throughout the country, said Sun Huapu, a court spokesman.

China’s burgeoning fake goods market is causing tension with the US, which has said it forfeits up to $3.8bn in lost sales annually.

China has also launched a website making piracy cases public.

China is considered the biggest producer of imitation goods, incorporating a wide range of goods, from luxury clothes to films and even books.

Last year, more than 700 people were convicted in China in 505 criminal product piracy cases, said Mr Sun.
