    Application for an Order for inspection pursuant to RoP199Public

    Summary: Order by the President of the Court of First Instance on HyGear B.V.'s request to change the language of the proceedings to the language of the patent (English) under Art. 49(5) UPCA and Rule 323 RoP. The case involves Topsoe A/S's inspection and evidence preservation order against HyGear, SYPOX GmbH, Josef Kerner Energiewirtschafts GmbH and Technical University of Munich concerning EP 3 802 413. Headnotes: when balancing interests on language change, defendant's position is decisive if interests are equal; efficient communication among defendants without translation is especially important in accelerated proceedings.
