- 2025-03-11Generic application
Order from Munich Local Division dated 11 March 2025 on procedural matters arising from a preliminary injunction dispute between Syngenta and Sumi Agro. The panel upheld the judge-rapporteur's earlier order dismissing Sumi Agro's application to revoke provisional measures (which had been granted on 27 August 2024). The panel held that Syngenta had filed and paid court fees for the main proceedings in time to satisfy R. 213(1) and R. 15(2) RoP, confirming that payment does not require receipt by the court before the deadline, only that the fee was paid. Syngenta's application for re-establishment of rights was also dismissed as unfounded. Leave to appeal was granted given the fundamental interpretive issues involved.
Legal issues:Timeliness of filing and court fee payment under R. 15(2) and R. 213(1) RoPRevocation of provisional measures under R. 213 RoPRe-establishment of rightsInterpretation of 'start proceedings' - 2024-06-16Generic Order
The Munich Local Division granted a confidentiality protection order under Rule 262A RoP for documents in provisional measures proceedings, covering information in Confidential Exhibits SA-1 and SA-9 submitted by the defendants (Sumi Agro). The claimant (Syngenta) did not formally object. The order was issued in a new workflow due to a CMS malfunction in the original application.
