MSG Maschinenbau GmbH v.EJP Maschinen GmbH
Munich (DE) Local Division · UPC-001213
This case before the Local Chamber Munich of the Unified Patent Court concerned an infringement action and a counterclaim for revocation regarding European Patent EP 3 225 320 B1, which relates to a device and method for measuring the straightness of rod-shaped workpieces. Following the complete revocation of the patent by the EPO Board of Appeal on July 4, 2024, the claimant withdrew the infringement action and the defendant sought a declaration that the counterclaim had become moot. The court permitted the withdrawal, declared both proceedings terminated, ordered each party to bear its own costs, and granted each party a 60% reimbursement of court fees (€6,600.00 each).
