Abstract

ABSTRACT: Wide application of goods and services which are protected like some of the industrial property rights,
means that the consequences of their violation can be felt not only by the holders of these rights but also by the large number of users of these services and goods and the large number of consumers. Industrial property rights have a
great value for rights’ holders, inventors, authors etc. and also for the users who are authorized to use the industrial
property rights. The specific nature of industrial property rights is also reflected in the possible means for protection of these rights in a civil litigation. As a result, besides regular lawsuits the holders of these rights have at their disposal measures which provide protection and informing the general public such as publication of judicial decisions in means of public informing. The great value of industrial property rights and protecting the invested intellectual effort of inventors and authors of industrial property rights is shielded from the so called “free riders” – people who use the industrial property rights without authorization and the large profit realized without authorization and by the request for imposing a civil penalty. The paper will analyze the punitive damages and publication of verdict in means of public informing as specific institutes for protecting the industrial property rights in court procedures and concrete
experience from cases of Macedonian court practice
