Na osnovu člana 26. alineja 7. Ustavne povelje državne zajednice Srbija i Crna Gora, donosim

Ukaz o proglašenju Zakona o pravnoj zaštiti dizajna 1

Predsjednik Srbije i Crne Gore

Svetozar Marović, s.r.

Zakon o pravnoj zaštiti dizajna Zakon je objavljen u "Službenom listu SCG", br.

61/2004 od 24.12.2004. godine.

Član 1. Ovim zakonom uređuju se način ostvarivanja i zaštita prava na spoljašnji izgled

proizvoda. Pod spoljašnjim izgledom proizvoda podrazumijeva se ukupan vizuelni utisak koji

proizvod ostavlja na informisanog potrošača ili korisnika. Informisani potrošač ili korisnik, u smislu ovog zakona, je fizičko lice koje se redovno

susreće sa proizvodom o kojem je riječ.

I. PREDMET I USLOVI ZAŠTITE Pojam dizajna

Član 2. Dizajn je trodimenzionalni ili dvodimenzionalni izgled cijelog proizvoda, ili njegovog

dijela, koji je određen njegovim vizuelnim karakteristikama, posebno linijama, konturama, bojama, oblikom, teksturom i materijalima od kojih je proizvod sačinjen, ili kojima je ukrašen, kao i njihovom kombinacijom.

Proizvod je industrijski ili zanatski predmet, uključujući, između ostalog, i dijelove koji su namijenjeni za spajanje u složeni proizvod, pakovanje proizvoda, grafičke simbole i tipografske znake, isključujući kompjuterske programe.

Složeni proizvod je proizvod koji je sastavljen od više dijelova koji mogu da budu zamijenjeni i koji omogućavaju sastavljanje i rastavljanje proizvoda.

Uslovi za zaštitu dizajna Član 3.

Dizajn se štiti isključivim pravom (pravom na dizajn) ako je nov i ako ima individualni karakter.

Novost Član 4.

Dizajn se smatra novim ako identičan dizajn nije postao dostupan javnosti prije dana podnošenja prijave za priznanje tog dizajna, ili ako ne postoji ranije podneta prijava za priznanje identičnog dizajna.

U slučaju da je zatraženo pravo prvenstva iz člana 25. ili člana 26. ovog zakona, smatraće se da je dizajn nov ako nije postao dostupan javnosti prije dana priznatog prava prvenstva.

Dizajni se smatraju identičnim ako se razlikuju samo u nebitnim detaljima. Razlika u nebitnim detaljima postoji ako informisani korisnik, na prvi pogled, ne razlikuje dizajne.

Individualni karakter Član 5.

Dizajn ima individualni karakter ako se ukupan utisak koji ostavlja na informisanog korisnika razlikuje od ukupnog utiska koji na tog korisnika ostavlja bilo koji drugi dizajn, a koji je postao dostupan javnosti prije dana podnošenja prijave za priznanje, ili dana priznatog prava prvenstva suprotstavljenog dizajna.

Prilikom utvrđivanja individualnog karaktera dizajna uzima se u obzir stepen slobode i objektivno ograničenje autora prilikom stvaranja dizajna konkretnog proizvoda, prouzrokovano tehnološkim i funkcionalnim karakteristikama tog proizvoda.

Dizajn proizvoda koji čini sastavni dio složenog proizvoda Član 6.

Za dizajn, primjenjen na proizvodu, ili sadržan u proizvodu koji čini sastavni dio složenog proizvoda, smatra se da je nov i da ima individualni karakter:

1) ako sastavni dio koji je ugrađen u složeni proizvod ostaje vidljiv tokom redovne upotrebe složenog proizvoda, i

2) ako vidljive karakteristike sastavnog dijela ispunjavaju uslove novosti i individualnog karaktera.

Pod redovnom upotrebom iz stava 1. tačka 1. ovog člana podrazumijeva se upotreba od strane krajnjeg korisnika, isključujući održavanje, servisiranje ili popravke proizvoda.

Dostupnost javnosti Član 7.

Smatra se da je dizajn postao dostupan javnosti, u smislu čl. 4. i 5. ovog zakona, ako je objavljen, izlagan, korišćen u prometu robe i usluga, ili na drugi način otkriven prije dana podnošenja prijave za priznanje dizajna, ili datuma prvenstva, ako je ono traženo, osim u slučaju kada u standardnim tokovima poslovanja nije postojala razumna mogućnost da poslovni krugovi specijalizovani za datu oblast saznaju za otkrivanje dizajna.

Ne smatra se da je dizajn postao dostupan javnosti u smislu stava 1. ovog člana ukoliko je otkriven trećem licu pod uslovom čuvanja tajnosti dizajna.

Ne smatra se da je dizajn postao dostupan javnosti, u smislu čl. 4. i 5. ovog zakona, ako je dizajn otkrio autor, njegov pravni sljedbenik ili treće lice na osnovu informacije dobijene od autora ili njegovog pravnog sljedbenika, ili radnje koju je jedan od njih preduzeo, pod uslovom da je, od trenutka kada je dizajn otkriven do trenutka podnošenja prijave za priznanje dizajna, odnosno do trenutka zatraženog prava prvenstva, proteklo manje od 12 mjeseci, kao i ako je dizajn postao dostupan javnosti kao posljedica zloupotrebe vezane za autora ili njegovog pravnog sljedbenika.

Isključenje zaštite zbog tehničke funkcije Član 8.

Pravom na dizajn ne može da se zaštiti spoljašnji izgled proizvoda koji je isključivo određen tehničkom funkcijom proizvoda.

Pravom na dizajn ne može da se zaštiti spoljašnji izgled proizvoda koji mora da bude reprodukovan u svom tačnom obliku i dimenzijama, kako bi se omogućilo da bude mehanički povezan sa, ili postavljen u, oko ili uz drugi proizvod, tako da svaki proizvod može da obavlja svoju funkciju.

Pod uslovima iz čl. 4. i 5. ovog zakona, nezavisno od stava 2. ovog člana, može da se zaštiti dizajn koji omogućava višestruko sastavljanje, ili povezivanje međusobno zamjenjivih proizvoda u modularnom sistemu.

Dizajn koji ne može da se zaštiti Član 9.

Zahtjev za razdvajanje mora da sadrži propisane podatke.

Svaka od izdvojenih prijava iz stava 1. ovog člana dobija novi broj prijave i zavodi se u odgovarajući registar, ali zadržava datum podnošenja prvobitne višestruke prijave i njeno pravo prvenstva.

O razdvajanju prijave donosi se posebno rješenje, u kome se naznačava broj, odnosno brojevi novih prijava, dizajni koji ostaju u prvobitnoj višestrukoj prijavi i dizajni koji su u izdvojenoj, ili izdvojenim prijavama.

Djelimično priznanje višestruke prijave Član 33.

Ako utvrdi da višestruka prijava, pored dizajna kojima se može priznati zaštita, sadrži i jedan ili više dizajna kojima se, na osnovu ovoga zakona, ne može priznati zaštita, nadležni organ će pismeno o tome obavijestiti podnosioca prijave i pozvaće ga da se u roku koji nadležni organ odredi izjasni o navedenim razlozima.

Na obrazloženi zahtjev podnosioca prijave, nadležni organ može da produži rok iz stava 1. ovog člana za vrijeme koje smatra primjerenim, a najduže tri mjeseca.

Nadležni organ će donijeti rješenje o djelimičnom priznanju višestruke prijave ako se podnosilac prijave uopšte ne izjasni, ili ako se izjasni, a nadležni organ i dalje smatra da se nekim dizajnima iz višestruke prijave ne može priznati zaštita.

III. SADRŽINA, OBIM I OGRANIČENJE PRAVA NA DIZAJN Sadržina prava na dizajn

Član 38. Nosilac prava na dizajn ima isključivo pravo na ekonomsko iskorišćavanje zaštićenog

dizajna i da to pravo uskrati svakom trećem licu. Pod ekonomskim iskorišćavanjem iz stava 1. ovog člana podrazumijeva se industrijska i

zanatska izrada proizvoda za tržište, na osnovu primjene zaštićenog dizajna, kao i: 1) upotreba takvog proizvoda u privrednoj djelatnosti; 2) skladištenje takvog proizvoda radi njegovog stavljanja u promet; 3) ponuda takvog proizvoda radi njegovog stavljanja u promet; 4) stavljanje u promet takvog proizvoda; 5) uvoz takvog proizvoda i 6) izvoz takvog proizvoda.

Prava autora dizajna Član 39.

Autor dizajna ima moralna i imovinska prava. Moralno je pravo autora dizajna da njegovo ime bude navedeno u prijavi, spisima i

ispravi o dizajnu. Imovinsko je pravo autora da uživa ekonomsku korist od iskorišćavanja zaštićenog

dizajna. Ako autor dizajna nije nosilac prava na dizajn, oblik ekonomske koristi koju uživa autor

zaštićenog dizajna od njegovog iskorišćavanja određuje se ugovorom između nosioca prava na dizajn i autora dizajna.

Obim prava na dizajn Član 40.

Obim prava koja se stiču na osnovu priznatog dizajna određen je sadržinom opisa dizajna koji je zasnovan na podnetom prikazu.

Podnosilac prijave može sam, ili na pismeni zahtjev nadležnog organa u ostavljenom roku, da izjavi da ne traži bilo kakva isključiva prava na elementu dizajna navedenom u opisu.

Prilikom utvrđivanja obima prava na dizajn, u slučaju spora, sud će uzeti u obzir slobodu autora prilikom stvaranja dizajna, u smislu člana 5. stava 2. ovog zakona.

Pravo ranije upotrebe Član 41.

Pravo na dizajn ne djeluje prema savjesnom licu koje je prije datuma priznatog prava prvenstva prijave u zemlji već otpočelo korišćenje istog dizajna u proizvodnji, ili je izvršilo sve neophodne pripreme za otpočinjanje takvog korišćenja.

Lice iz stava 1. ovog člana ima pravo da dizajn koristi isključivo u proizvodne svrhe, u svom preduzeću ili radionici, ili tuđem preduzeću ili radionici za sopstvene potrebe.

Lice iz stava 1. ovog člana ne može da prenese svoje pravo na korišćenje dizajna na drugog, osim ako zajedno sa pravom prenosi i preduzeće ili radionicu, odnosno dio preduzeća u kome je pripremljeno, odnosno otpočelo korišćenje tog dizajna.

Ograničenje prava Član 42.

Nosilac prava na dizajn ne može da zabrani trećem licu: 1) radnje učinjene u nekomercijalne i eksperimentalne svrhe i 2) radnje umnožavanja u svrhu podučavanja ili citiranja, pod uslovom da su takve

radnje u skladu sa praksom lojalne konkurencije i da neopravdano ne ugrožavaju normalno iskorišćavanje dizajna, kao i da je navedeno odakle je dizajn preuzet.

Ograničenje prava radi nesmetanog obavljanja međunarodnog saobraćaja

Član 43. Pravo na dizajn ne djeluje prema licu koje upotrebljava predmete koji su proizvedeni na

osnovu zaštićenog dizajna, a koji sačinjavaju dio konstrukcije ili opreme broda, vazduhoplova ili suvozemnog vozila, odnosno služe isključivo za potrebe funkcionisanja broda, vazduhoplova ili suvozemnog vozila koje je registrovano u nekoj od zemalja članica Pariske unije ili Svjetske trgovinske organizacije, kad se ono privremeno ili slučajno nađe na teritoriji Srbije i Crne Gore.

Iscrpljenje prava Član 44.

Nosilac prava na dizajn koji je u Srbiji i Crnoj Gori stavio u promet proizvod koji sadrži zaštićeni dizajn, ili koji je oblikovan prema zaštićenom dizajnu, ili ako je nosilac prava na dizajn ovlastio neko lice da u Srbiji i Crnoj Gori takav proizvod stavi u promet, nema pravo da zabrani trećim licima dalje raspolaganje tim proizvodom, kupljenim u legalnim tokovima prometa.

Stav 1. ovog člana neće se primijeniti u slučaju postojanja legitimnog interesa nosioca prava na dizajn da se suprotstavi daljem stavljanju u promet proizvoda koji sadrži zaštićeni dizajn, ili koji je oblikovan prema zaštićenom dizajnu, posebno ako je u međuvremenu došlo do kvara ili druge promjene svojstva proizvoda.

Odnos sa drugim oblicima zaštite Član 45.

Odredbe ovog zakona neće uticati na postojeća prava vezana za žigove, patente ili male patente. Dizajn zaštićen po odredbama ovog zakona uživa zaštitu i na osnovu zakona kojim se uređuje autorsko pravo od datuma kada je dizajn nastao, odnosno od kada je izražen u određenoj formi.

IV. PRAVNA ZAŠTITA DIZAJNA STVORENOG U RADNOM ODNOSU Član 46.

narednog dana od dana isteka roka za plaćanje; 2) ako se vlasnik odrekne prava - narednog dana od dana predaje nadležnom organu

podneska o odricanju; 3) na osnovu sudske odluke ili odluke nadležnog organa, u slučajevima predviđenim

ovim zakonom - danom koji je određen tom odlukom; 4) ako je prestalo da postoji pravno lice, ili ako je umrlo fizičko lice koje je nosilac prava

- danom prestanka pravnog lica, odnosno smrti fizičkog lica, osim ako pravo na dizajn nije prešlo na pravne sljedbenike ovih lica.

Pravo trećeg lica upisano u registre Član 51.

Ako je u Registru dizajna i Registru prijava upisano određeno pravo u korist trećeg lica (licenca, zaloga, ili dr.), nosilac prava na dizajn, odnosno podnosilac prijave, ne može da se odrekne svog prava bez pismene saglasnosti lica na čije ime je upisano to pravo.

Ako nosilac prava na dizajn u propisanom roku ne plati odgovarajuću taksu za održavanje važenja prava na dizajn, a u Registru dizajna je upisana licenca, zaloga ili neko drugo pravo u korist trećeg lica, nadležni organ će to lice obavijestiti da nije plaćena taksa i da je može platiti u roku od šest mjeseci od dana prijema obavještenja i time održati važenje upisanog prava.
