Judicial Training Intellectual Property Law Seminar 20–21 September 2017 Bucharest UPC Where are we? Willem A. Hoyng

UPC / UP UPC : Unified Patent Court One court with divisions local regional (Baltic States + Sweden) Central (London, Paris, Munich) decide on infringement/validity European Patents (if not opted out) Unitary Patents Rules of Procedure Court of Appeal: Luxemburg

What has to happen? “Provisional Application Phase so called “sunrise period” Ratification of UPC 14 countries have ratified UK is planning Germany (signature of the President is needed BUT)

BUT: Constitutional Complaint in Constitutional Court BUT: Constitutional Complaint in Constitutional Court. Court asks President not to sign! Complaint: UPC is not a national court but replaces jurisdiction of national courts and deals with EU law. This is contrary to EU Treaty. Language regime is contrary art. 47.2 and art. 48.2 of Charter of Fundamental rights. Court has no competence with respect to EPO’s decision not to grant. Board of Appeal is not independent judicial body.

Delay Constitutional Complaint: 1 year Brexit ??? Preparations continue Selection judges Refinement Rules of Proceedings (updated 18th version) IT Case Management System is being tested. Prediction: ???
