The changes in the judicial system concerning intellectual property matters have been widely discussed for long. A draft of the relevant act, which initially seemed to be the issue of the remote future, will be coming into effect fairly soon.

The act is a response to many postulated proposals of introduction into the Polish judicial system of specialized courts to handle intellectual property matters.
