    The Local Division Düsseldorf granted an ex parte inspection and evidence preservation order (Inspektions- und Beweissicherungsanordnung) under Art. 60 UPCA and Rules 194(d), 196, 197, 199 RoP in respect of EP 4 285 308 B8. The order authorises a court-appointed expert to inspect the respondents' premises in Berlin and Munich, secure digital and physical evidence relating to the 'Swissbit Cloud-TSE 2' product, and prepare a written expert report; the order becomes effective only upon the claimant lodging security of EUR 10,000. The application for four claimant representatives to be present was partially rejected, limiting attendance to one legal and one patent-attorney representative per site.

Angenommene Argumente
Was das Gericht akzeptiert hat — nach Partei.
  • Probable infringement of claims 6-9, 1, 10 and 12 of EP 4 285 308 B8 by the Swissbit Cloud-TSE 2 product, based on BSI certification documents confirming features 6.1-6.4a and 6.5, and expert opinion supporting high probability of features 6.4b and 6.6a/b

    KlägerRechtsgrundlage: Art. 60 UPCA, R. 194(d), 196 RoP
  • Risk that evidence would be concealed or moved to Switzerland if advance notice given to respondents, justifying ex parte procedure

    KlägerRechtsgrundlage: R. 197 RoP (ex parte)
  • Inspection measures are minimally invasive and do not restrict respondents' continued use of the accused embodiment

    KlägerRechtsgrundlage: Art. 60 UPCA, proportionality
  • Proposed court expert (Patent Attorney Lars Grannemann, Cohausz & Florack) is suitable for the technical subject matter

    KlägerRechtsgrundlage: R. 196 RoP
Zurückgewiesene Argumente
Was das Gericht nicht akzeptiert hat — und warum.
  • Request to have four named claimant UPC representatives present at both inspection sites simultaneously was excessive; only one legal and one patent-attorney representative per site allowed

    KlägerRechtsgrundlage: R. 196 RoP, proportionality
  • Request for a provisional costs order under Rule 211.1(d) RoP was rejected as inapplicable to inspection/evidence preservation proceedings

    KlägerRechtsgrundlage: R. 211.1(d) RoP (not applicable by analogy)
