When a trademark registrant or interested party files a lawsuit in a people's court, they may file a lawsuit separately or jointly. The Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Trademark Civil Disputes stipulates that when the exclusive right to use a registered trademark is infringed, the licensee of the exclusive use license contract may bring a lawsuit to the people's court, and the licensee of the exclusive use license contract may jointly bring a lawsuit with the trademark registrant, or bring a lawsuit on his own without the trademark registrant bringing a lawsuit. Authorized by the trademark registrant, the licensee of a general license contract may bring a lawsuit.
