JUICE EXTRACTOR
This is the separated part of the Hurom v. NUC Electronics Co., Ltd. proceedings (Korean parent entity) concerning EP 2 028 981 (juice extractor), covering alleged infringement in Poland, Spain, and the United Kingdom. The Mannheim Local Division dismissed this separated action because Hurom had not specifically asserted that NUC Electronics Co., Ltd.'s distributors for Poland and the UK offered or sold the contested products, and NUC had no Spanish distributor; costs of the court were borne by Hurom for this separated part, with each party bearing its own legal costs.
