Does Hangzhou's internet court publish cases, and how many are shopping or copyright fights?

Research question: Are the published case records of the Hangzhou Internet Court available from official Chinese court publications, and what share of its rulings concern e-commerce disputes versus internet intellectual property claims?

The records show that the court has had 43 cases selected for reports, case compilations, and awards published or selected by the Supreme People's Court 3. It has also released typical-case lists, including ten e-commerce cases in 2021 12 and ten network intellectual property cases in January 2024 5. The facts do not give a total ruling count or a breakdown showing the share of e-commerce versus internet IP disputes; they offer only 6,695 e-commerce cases accepted from 2018 to 2020 10 and a general statement that the court hears both types 8. One judgment, case number (2026)浙0192民初784号, appears on Wikisource rather than in an official court database 1. The newest dated fact is from 25 March 2026 2, about seven months before October 2026.

Checked 2026-10-20. Only documented and supported facts are used.
