Document background
The Infringement Notification is a critical legal document used in Pakistan when intellectual property rights holders discover unauthorized use or violation of their IP rights. This document serves as the first formal step in addressing IP infringement, typically sent before initiating court proceedings. It must comply with Pakistani IP laws and civil procedure requirements, including proper identification of the rights holder, detailed description of the infringement, and clear demands for remedial action. The notification can address various types of IP infringement, including patent, trademark, copyright, or design right violations. It should contain sufficient detail to establish the sender's rights, document the alleged infringement, and specify the required corrective actions. The document is particularly important as Pakistani courts often look for evidence of attempted resolution before formal litigation.
