公平交易法第25條對不公平競爭之補充適用及其類型化之發展

Supplemental Function of Article 25 of the Fair Trade Act in Unfair Competition and the Systematization of the Main Categories

"本文中主要從2015年公平法全盤修正以及歷年來行政法院判決所建構之要件體系作為出發點，探討第25條對不公平競爭之補充適用及其類型化之發展。 儘管公平法第25條在2015年修正時，並未有文字修正，但在補充適用原則下，公平法個別規定適用範圍的擴張，可能使第25條補充適用的範疇受到限縮。因此，本文試從2015年公平法及其後相關法規之修正（特別是第22條和第23條），分析第25條對不公平競爭行為之補充適用，是否有必要因應2015年修正而有所調整。 又第25條適用範圍之類型化與體系化，被期待作為一種降低概括規定不確定性之方法，有必要藉由掌握實務已建構之要件體系，以持續深化其發展。本文中藉由歷年來行政法院判決之分析，使第25條所補充適用之不公平競爭的違法性判斷之體系架構得以更為明確。希望藉此能使第25條之補充適用，有更為明確的判斷基準。"

"application of Article 25 of the Fair Trade Act (the “Act”) in unfair competition at the background of major revision of the Act in 2015 and the judicial standards adopted by administrative courts over the years. Under the principle of “supplementariness,” the expanded application scope of individual provisions of the Act may affect the scope of application of Article 25 of the Act. Therefore, this paper analyzes whether to adjust the supplementary scope of Article 25 to unfair trade acts, particularly in relation to the 2015 revision of the Act and the subsequent amendments of regulations and guidelines, if necessary. The systematization and categorization of the supplementary applications of Article 25 are methods intended to reduce the uncertainty of general provisions. To achieve a better systematization and categorization, analyzing judgments of administrative courts is necessary. In this paper, leading judgments by administrative courts over the years are examined to identify legal elements of types of unfair competition stipulated by Article 25 of the Act. On the basis of this analysis, a better set of judical standards for the supplementary application of Article 25 of the Act to unfair competition acts can be developed."
