KEEEX SAS v.Adobe Systems Software Ireland Limited, Adobe Inc., Open AI L.P, Open AI Opco LLC, Open AI Ireland Ltd, TruePic Inc., Joint Development Foundation Projects LLC, Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA)
KEEEX SAS filed a patent infringement action before the Local Division Paris of the Unified Patent Court concerning European Patent EP 2 949 070 against multiple defendants including Adobe, OpenAI entities, TruePic, JDFP, and C2PA. The defendants raised preliminary objections challenging the international jurisdiction of the UPC and, in the case of TruePic, the internal jurisdiction of the Paris Local Division. The court rejected all preliminary objections, finding that the claimant had sufficiently established the availability of the disputed digital tools on French territory and that UPC jurisdiction extended to non-UPC member states based on the ECJ's BSH ruling.
GISELA MAYER GmbH v.N.J DIFFUSION SARL
GISELA MAYER GmbH, the defendant in a patent infringement action brought by N.J DIFFUSION SARL concerning European Patent EP2404516, filed a request under Rule 158 RoP seeking an order requiring N.J DIFFUSION to provide security for costs. The Local Division of Paris rejected the request, finding that N.J DIFFUSION had sufficiently demonstrated its positive financial situation and that the estimated recoverable costs (capped at 56,000 euros) did not pose a genuine risk of non-recovery. The court also rejected GISELA MAYER's subsidiary request for leave to appeal, holding that such orders are case management orders subject to panel review under Rule 333 RoP.
