Abstract

This study aims to analyze the meaning of “retroactive” in Article 60 of the Patent Law which has multiple interpretations. This legal research is normative with a grammatical interpretation approach. The result of the research is that there is a vague interpretation of a norm on the phrase “retroactive” in the Explanation in Article 60 of Patents Law. There is no authentic interpretation on the explanation of article 60. Supposedly, must to be explain the phrase specifically for the phrase “retroactive” so as no confusion about what are they meant by “retroactive” in the regulation of article 60. The conclusion is that the meaning of the phrase “retroactive” can lead to obscure (vague) norms resulting in legal ambiguity over the regulation of Article 60. The implication of this research is that the government must immediately make a clear explanation on the phrase “retroactive” so that patent protection can be maximized.
