UPC_APP_8203/2025

Order by Mannheim Local Division (UPC_CFI_819/2024, 3 April 2025) dismissing preliminary objections by Hisense, TCL and LG defendants in Corning's infringement action for EP 3 296 274 (glass sheets in LCD TVs). Defendants argued as distributors they had no knowledge of the manufacturing process and that three separate infringement forms could not be tried in one action (Art. 33(1)(a) UPCA). The court rejected these arguments.
