Article 9Determination of Reasonable Amount of Loss or Damage

第九条(相当な損害額の認定)

In litigation involving infringement that may harm business interests through unfair competition, if the court finds that loss or damage has actually been incurred but it is extremely difficult to prove the facts necessary to determine the amount of loss or damage due to the nature of the facts, the court may determine a reasonable amount of loss or damage based on the entirety of the oral arguments and the results of the examination of the evidence.
