Summary: The Mannheim Local Division issued a procedural order addressing applications by Hisense, TCL, and LG defendants for a stay of proceedings under R. 295(m) RoP, pending the outcome of parallel proceedings against the alleged glass manufacturer (ACT_66849/2024) in the Corning v. Hisense/TCL/LG infringement action concerning EP 3 296 274. The court denied the main request for a stay, while addressing the defendants' argument that proceedings had been artificially split.
