Application by Bhagat Textile Engineers for public access under R.262.1(b) RoP to the counterclaim for revocation case file (Himson v. Oerlikon) in proceedings before the Milan Local Division was rejected. The court held that the information sought was obtainable from other public sources, that Bhagat had already been found to infringe the patent in parallel proceedings and had procedurally chosen not to challenge the patent, and that granting access would compromise the integrity of pending settlement negotiations between the parties.
