Mathys & Squire LLP v.Respondent
An intellectual property firm, Mathys & Squire LLP, applied under Rule 262(1)(b) of the Rules of Procedure for access to all written pleadings and evidence in proceedings concerning European patent EP 3 414 708. The respondents, BITZER Electronics A/S and Carrier Corporation, did not submit any comments. The judge-rapporteur granted the application, finding that since the proceedings had come to an end, the interests opposing publication under Article 45 UPCA were not substantial enough to override the requester's interest in accessing the documents.
AUGUST DEBOUZY v.Respondent
Martin Lionel applied under Rule 262(1)(b) of the Rules of Procedure for public access to several Registry documents and communications related to revocation proceedings (UPC_CFI_263/2023) between BITZER Electronics A/S and Carrier Corporation concerning European patent EP 3 414 708. The respondents did not submit any comments on the application. The judge-rapporteur held that Rule 262(1)(b) covers only written pleadings and evidence lodged by the parties, and does not extend to Registry communications, formal-checks notifications, or court orders on procedural matters such as stays.
