Today, the protection of intellectual property rights and legitimate interests of citizens is guaranteed by Article 55 of the Constitution of Ukraine, which provides and guarantees to everyone who uses all national forms of legal protection, protection of rights and freedoms in court. According to the second part of Art. 124 of the Basic Law, the jurisdiction of the courts extends to any legal dispute and all legal relations arising in the state. In addition to the constitutional right to administrative and judicial protection of intellectual property, the rules of special legislation in the field of intellectual property also determine other types of protection. In particular, part of the first article. 52 of the Law of Ukraine «On Copyright and Related Rights», to protect their copyrights and (or) related rights, entities have the right in accordance with the established procedure to apply to the court and other authorities in accordance with their competence.

Trade secrecy, a form of intellectual property protection, serves the important societal function of promoting innovation. But as police departments across the country increasingly rely on proprietary technologies like facial recognition and predictive policing tools, an uneasy tension between due process and trade secrecy has developed: to fulfill Brady’s constitutional promise of a fair trial, defendants must have access to the technologies accusing them, access that trade secrecy inhibits. Thus far, this tension is being resolved too far in favor of the trade secret holder—and at too great an expense to the defendant. The wrong balance has been struck. This Note offers three contributions. First, it explains the use of algorithms in law enforcement and the intertwined role of trade secrecy protections. Second, it shows how trade secrecy clashes with the Due Process Clause—the Constitution’s mechanism for correcting the power asymmetry between the state and the defendant—and argues that due process should not waver simply because a source of evidence is digital, not human. Third, it proposes a solution that better balances a defendant’s due process rights with intellectual property protections.

In recent years, Ukraine has received not only new legislation, a new regulator, but also a new National Intellectual Property Authority. On the initiative of the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine 13.10.2020 № 1267-r, in pursuance of subparagraph 1 of paragraph 7 of section II «Final and transitional provisions» of the Law of Ukraine of 16.06.2020 № 703-IX «On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine on the Establishment of a National Intellectual Property Authority» determined that the state enterprise «Ukrainian Institute of Intellectual Property» performs the functions of the National Intellectual Property Authority. Given that the state structures considered six options for the formation of a new national body, the definition of a temporary state enterprise «Ukrainian Institute of Intellectual Property» as the National Intellectual Property Authority, on the one hand was the best solution, and on the other, the intellectual property protection system to some laws of Ukraine on the establishment of a national intellectual property body, has undergone significant changes, which could not affect the entire system of intellectual property protection in the state. Keywords: intellectual property, legislation, reorganization, national authority, system, structure
