The court with jurisdiction over trademark infringement cases

Legal analysis: Litigation filed due to infringement shall be under the jurisdiction of the People's Court of the place where the infringement occurred or where the defendant is domiciled. Therefore, cases of trademark infringement are generally under the jurisdiction of the intermediate people's court at the place where the infringement occurred or where the defendant is domiciled, or the grassroots court with jurisdiction over trademark cases.

Legal basis: "Interpretation on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Civil Trademark Dispute Cases" Article 6 Civil lawsuits filed due to infringement of the exclusive rights of registered trademarks shall be determined by the place where the infringement is committed and the storage of the infringing goods. The people's court has jurisdiction over the place where the case was seized or the place of seizure or the defendant's domicile. The storage place of infringing goods refers to the place where infringing goods are stored or concealed in large quantities or regularly; the place of seizure and seizure refers to the place where customs, industry and commerce and other administrative agencies seal and detain infringing goods in accordance with the law. For the same lawsuit filed by multiple defendants involving different places where the infringement was committed, the plaintiff can choose the jurisdiction of the people's court where the infringement of one of the defendants was committed; for a lawsuit filed only against one of the defendants, the plaintiff can choose the place where the defendant's infringement was committed. The People's Court has jurisdiction.
