Procedural order of the Hamburg Local Division on the method of service of the statement of claim on Xiaomi Communications Co., Ltd., Xiaomi Inc. (both domiciled in China) and MediaTek Inc. (domiciled in Taiwan) as defendants in infringement proceedings by Daedalus Prime LLC concerning EP 2 792 100. The Court ruled that service via the German branch offices under Rule 271.5(a) RoP was not possible since the Chinese/Taiwanese defendants did not have their own place of business within the UPCA contracting member states. Service must be effected via the Hague Service Convention.
