First decided: Dec 17, 2025

Language: —

The Hague Local Division refused an anonymous applicant's request to access the case file of UPC_CFI_830/2025 (an application for provisional measures by Abbott Diabetes Care against MicroTech Medical and others relating to EP 3 960 072, a diabetes monitoring device). The applicant claimed to represent a competitor conducting a freedom-to-operate analysis for a CGM product. The Court found the applicant's specific interest insufficiently established: the identity of the unnamed 'client' could not be verified, and the urgency of access before the proceedings concluded was not justified, particularly given the proceedings were expected to conclude within weeks.
