Paris Local Division (1 March 2024) dismissed Novawell's application to review and revoke the ex parte saisie (preservation of evidence) order issued on 14 November 2023 against C-KORE Systems Limited. The court upheld the saisie carried out by an expert assisted by a bailiff as lawful under French law and R. 196.5 RoP, held the 30-day review period ran from the bailiff's closing minute, and confirmed sufficient evidence of infringement existed at the time of the original order.
