The President Assistant of the Civil Fifth Court, part of the Beijing Municipal Intermediate People's Court Number 1, Yi Jun gave his view on what are the most important foreign-related IPR ligitation problems. The President Assistant distinguishes three categories of problems:"1. The status of the person who signs letters of attorney on behalf of foreign companies can not be confirmed;
2. the items to be authorised, delegated authority and the period of validity are stated unclearly;
3. the parties concerned do not fully consider the time on notarisation and authentication procedure and the non-correspondence of the period of appeal and prosecution for foreign parties concerned based on China's Civil Procedure Law, Administrative Procedure Law and other laws."
