【摘要】：实践中,除了反垄断行政执法机构对转售价格维持协议案件的查处,市场主体提起反垄断民事诉讼也成为反垄断法规制转售价格维持协议的重要推动力量。从我国的反垄断司法实践来看,转售价格维持协议纠纷案件的数量逐渐增多,并有危害严重化的发展态势,这对司法机关处理此类纠纷的应对能力提出了更高的要求。本文基于反垄断民事诉讼的视角,以反垄断司法实践中出现的典型案例“锐邦诉强生案”为线索,归纳出转售价格维持协议纠纷处理中亟待解决的争议性法律适用问题:转售价格维持协议的参与者是否具有原告资格,转售价格维持协议的违法性如何认定,以及转售价格维持协议反竞争效果的举证责任如何分配。三个争议性法律问题相互联系,分属于转售价格维持协议纠纷处理过程的开端、中段以及末端,并统一于转售价格维持协议纠纷处理的过程之中。从我国市场经济的发展现况出发,基于我国《反垄断法》的立法宗旨,并参考美国与欧盟的反垄断立法与司法实践的成熟经验,本文对上述尚存争议的法律问题展开分析得出如下结论:对于转售价格维持协议纠纷的处理,我国应当明确转售价格维持协议的参与者具有原告资格提起反垄断民事诉讼;应当适用“本身违法+例外豁免”原则进行转售价格维持协议违法性的认定;原告无需承担被诉转售价格维持协议反竞争效果的举证责任,而应由被告来承担该协议符合法定豁免条件的举证责任。
[Abstract]:In practice, in addition to the investigation and punishment of resale price maintenance agreement cases by anti-monopoly administrative law enforcement agencies, the civil action against monopoly brought by the main body of the market has also become an important driving force for the anti-monopoly law to control the resale price maintenance agreement. From the point of view of antitrust judicial practice in our country, the number of cases of resale price maintenance agreement disputes is gradually increasing, and there is a development trend of serious harm, which puts forward higher requirements for the judicial organs to deal with such disputes. Based on the perspective of anti-monopoly civil litigation, this paper takes the typical case of anti-monopoly judicial practice, "Ruibang v. Qiangsheng case" as a clue. This paper sums up the controversial legal application problems to be solved urgently in the dispute settlement of resale price maintenance agreement: whether the participants in the resale price maintenance agreement have the qualification of plaintiff, and how to determine the illegality of the resale price maintenance agreement. And how to distribute the burden of proof of anti-competitive effect of resale price maintenance agreement. The three controversial legal issues are related to each other, which belong to the beginning, middle and end of the dispute settlement process of resale price maintenance agreement, and are unified in the process of resale price maintenance agreement dispute settlement. Starting from the present situation of the development of the market economy in our country, based on the legislative purpose of the Anti-monopoly Law of our country, and referring to the mature experience of the anti-monopoly legislation and judicial practice of the United States and the European Union, This paper analyzes the legal issues mentioned above and draws the following conclusions: for the settlement of the dispute of resale price maintenance agreement, our country should make it clear that the participants in the resale price maintenance agreement should file antitrust civil litigation with the qualification of plaintiff; The principle of "exemption from illegal exceptions" should be applied to the determination of the illegality of the resale price maintenance agreement. The plaintiff does not have to bear the burden of proof of the anti-competitive effect of the resale price maintenance agreement, but the defendant should bear the burden of proof that the agreement meets the legal exemption conditions.
