The Düsseldorf Local Division issued a further procedural order under R. 275.2 RoP in HP's logic circuitry patent provisional measures proceedings, addressing service-related steps following the December 2025 preliminary injunction order.

The Düsseldorf Local Division granted a preliminary injunction against Andreas Rentmeister and Shenzhen Moan Technology for infringement of HP's logic circuitry patent EP 3 835 965, deciding on the merits after the defendants failed to lodge an objection following deemed service.

The Düsseldorf Local Division deemed service of the HP preliminary injunction application on Shenzhen Moan Technology Co. (Defendant 2) to be good service under R. 275.2 RoP, after the Chinese central authority failed to process the Hague Convention request for several months.

The Düsseldorf Local Division granted a preliminary injunction against Defendant 1 (Andreas Rentmeister e.K.) prohibiting the sale and distribution of ink cartridges allegedly infringing HP's patent EP 3 835 965 B1 on logic circuitry for replaceable print apparatus components, with penalty payments of up to EUR 250,000 per day.
