Public
Summary: Procedural order of the Düsseldorf Local Division (judge-rapporteur Dr. Schumacher) granting Zapp AG and Zapp Precision Metals GmbH a partial extension of the deadline for filing their Statement of Defence in Dai Nippon Printing's infringement action (EP 3 805 415). The claimant opposed full extension but the court extended the deadline by one week (to 16 September 2025), finding that the exceptional circumstances cited by defendants partially justified an extension while requiring a balance with the claimant's interest in swift proceedings.
Show the legal issues (2)
- Deadline extension under Rule 9.3(a) RoP
