Zusammenfassung: The Milan Local Division found Tianjin Kingtyre Group Co., Ltd. liable for literal infringement of EP 2519412 (motorcycle tyres) by offering and promoting tyre models K902 and GRADE W at the EICMA fair and on its website. A default judgment (decisione by default) was issued because the defendant failed to appear after proper service of process. An injunction was granted prohibiting further infringement in all UPCA Contracting Member States where the patent is in force, with periodic penalties; requests for product withdrawal/destruction and disclosure of distribution information were denied as disproportionate given no proven actual sales.

KlägerRechtsgrundlage: Art. 55(2) UPCAAn injunction covering all UPCA member states where EP 2519412 is in force is proportionate given the severity of infringement (internet promotion and presentation at EICMA international trade fair)
KlägerRechtsgrundlage: Arts. 25, 63 UPCA; R. 355.4 RoPPublication of the decision on defendant's website is warranted given the severity of the infringement
