Provisional Measures
27. Articles 50.2 and 50.8 require Members to authorize judicial and administrative authorities to adopt provisional measures inaudita altera parte. With respect to each intellectual property right identified in Article 1.2 of the TRIPS Agreement, please describe briefly the circumstances in which the judicial and administrative authorities are empowered to adopt provisional measures inaudita altera parte and cite the relevant legal authority.
Under Article 156(4) of the Code of Civil Procedure a provisional measure may only be ordered inaudita altera parte if the measure is urgently needed, or if the party does not comply with the time-limit or period fixed for the hearing.
