美國商標法與中國商標法司法保護之比較畢業(yè)論文文獻翻譯

1、<p>　　美國商標法與中國商標法司法保護之比較1】</p><p>　　美國商標法的保護范圍</p><p>　　美國商標保護來自普通法而非立法或憲法規(guī)定，如版權(quán)和專利。對于商標的保護而言，普通法仍然是一個基本來源，但是，商標如今也可以得到聯(lián)邦和州相關(guān)法律的保護。因此，商標出現(xiàn)的問題，往往有一個普通法規(guī)則和法定條文之間復(fù)雜的相互作用。</p><p>　

2、　在美國，假定一個商標可以得到保護，商標權(quán)能夠通過兩種方式獲得：（1）通過優(yōu)先在商業(yè)方面使用標記；或（2）通過在美國專利和商標辦公室（商標局）優(yōu)先注冊標記。但是，在美國專利和商標辦公室登記并不能獲得對商標的保護，然而，登記的確可以賦予登記方一些好處。已登記商標的優(yōu)點是，在“不反對”使用五年后，商標成為“無可爭辯”的。一個“無可爭辯”的商標不能因為其缺乏顯著性而遭受質(zhì)疑。即使存在質(zhì)疑，已登記的商標一般被推定為有效的商標，并將舉證責任置于原

3、告去指證被告。</p><p>　　根據(jù)普通法國家，商標基于不正當競爭得以保護時，不需要登記注冊。國家對商標的法定規(guī)定有所不同，但大多數(shù)都采用同一版本的“商標條例草案”或“欺騙性貿(mào)易行為法”?！吧虡藯l例草案”需要商標登記而“欺騙性貿(mào)易行為法”不需要。</p><p>　　而根據(jù)聯(lián)邦法律，登記注冊不需要建立在商標權(quán)的基礎(chǔ)上，也不需要開始使用商標。但是，通過聯(lián)邦注冊獲得的利益遠遠超過僅僅通過使

4、用商標而獲得的利益。例如，聯(lián)邦注冊的所有者被推定為登記規(guī)定的貨物和服務(wù)商標的所有者，有權(quán)在全國范圍內(nèi)使用該商標。雖然國家普通法行之有效，但是聯(lián)邦法律為商標保護提供了最廣泛的來源。</p><p>　　總之，在美國商標的保護范圍是比較廣泛的。在某些情況下，商標保護的范圍擴展到不僅包括文字、符號、短語，而且包括產(chǎn)品的其他方面，比如其色彩或包裝。</p><p>　　Comparison of
