Decision of the Mannheim Local Division dismissing FUJIFILM Corporation's infringement action against Kodak GmbH, Kodak Graphic Communications GmbH, and Kodak Holding GmbH for the UK-validated part of EP 3 476 616. The Court found that the UPC has jurisdiction over the UK part of a European bundle patent and can assess validity as a prerequisite for infringement with inter partes effect, but that the infringement action failed on the merits (invalidity defence succeeded). The claimant bears litigation costs.
