This article discusses proposed legislative changes which aim to introduce a special court into the Polish court system to handle intellectual property matters.The main reason for establishing such a court is, undoubtedly, the quite specific nature of proceedings regarding intangible property rights in a broad sense. The bill is part of a vast exercise to amend civil procedure law, but, to a large extent, has an impact on the substantive provisions of Industrial Property Law and the Act on Copyright and Related Rights. A number of the proposed solutions should, therefore, have a consistent influence on intellectual property laws and contribute to increasing the quality of adjudication. A substantial portion of the doctrinal considerations addressed in this article are, however, about selected issues related to new laws on remedies available in intellectual property law proceedings. In particular, they include provisions which enable the disclosure of information on intellectual property right violations. The issue of information disclosure requests has already provoked many reactions, mostly critical, with respect to the current legislation. Therefore, examining the proposed change is all the more justified as it may provide an answer to whether the uncertainties associated with applying this construct will continue to exist.
