摘　　要：知识产权遭受侵害,赔偿的结果是判断救济是否得到实现的标准,从而成为知识产权受保护程度的风向标。救济是否得到实现,即损害赔偿的确定取决于权利人的举证。由于知识产权损害的特殊性,对权利人举证责任过于苛责,必然减弱对权利人的保护力度;但是同时,举证责任的完成和分配,担负着诚信诉讼的职责。如果对权利人的举证责任过于缓减,滋生盈利诉讼,会将诉讼变成盈利的手段。我国立法中的定额赔偿,为快速审结案件并维护权利人的利益起到积极的作用。但是,由于其大量适用导致的后果使举证的空间骤然缩减。应该重新审视我国立法中逐渐提高定额赔偿幅度的立法趋势。In the intellectual property infringement lawsuits, damages are used to evaluate whether the injured party has been adequately compensated. In some sense, damages manifest the degree of intellectual property rights protection. Due to the special features of intellectual property rights infringement, we face a dilemma. Since the injured party is required to bear the burden of proof in damages calculation, if the requirements of proof providing on damages are too strict, the injured party can hardly get adequate compensation. On the contrary, if we lessen the burden of proof, lawsuits may be unfairly used as a tool to make profi ts. Though the statuary damages provided in Chinese intellectual property rights law furnishes a convenient way of resolving controversies, it also causes the reluctance of the injured party to prove damages. It is time to review the legislative trend of increasing statutory damages.
