2. Identification of the crime of patent counterfeiting
1. A perpetrator who not only counterfeits the patents of others but also produces and sells fake and inferior goods patented by others is a crime of absorption. Because the production and sale of counterfeit goods that counterfeit other people's patents are an integral part of counterfeiting other people's patents, the former behavior is absorbed into the subsequent behavior, so the perpetrator's behavior is only determined to constitute the crime of patent counterfeiting, and he will be severely punished, rather than being treated as multiple crimes.
2. The perpetrator not only counterfeited other people's patents but also counterfeited other people's registered trademarks, which meets the requirements of two crimes and should be treated as two crimes and punished for several crimes.
3. The perpetrator who not only counterfeits patents and registered trademarks of others, but also produces or sells counterfeit and inferior goods should be convicted of several crimes. Counterfeiting other people's patents and registered trademarks is the premise, and producing or selling counterfeit goods is the result. The latter is absorbed by the former, but counterfeiting other people's patents and registered trademarks are two independent behaviors. Therefore, the perpetrator who not only counterfeits patents and registered trademarks of others, but also produces or sells counterfeit and inferior goods shall be punished for the crime of counterfeiting patents and counterfeiting registered trademarks of others.
