Pari Pharma GmbH v.Koninklijke Philips N.V.
Pari Pharma GmbH brought a revocation action against Koninklijke Philips N.V. concerning European Patent No. EP 3 397 329, titled 'Air-flow in a nebulizer head,' which was registered with unitary effect in Germany and France. The Court found that claim 1 of the patent as granted lacked novelty over prior art document WO 2017/102308 A1 (D1), but held that the amended claim 1 of Auxiliary Request 2 was inventive and valid. The revocation action was rejected insofar as the patent was maintained as amended by Auxiliary Request 2, with each party bearing their own costs.
