  Application for preserving evidence pursuant to RoP192Public

  Summary: The Copenhagen Local Division (in Danish) imposed penalty payments of EUR 67,500 on HGSystem ApS and associated entities for delayed compliance with a preservation of evidence order in proceedings concerning EP 4 238 202 B1. The defendants had failed to provide access codes and login information for financial systems, email accounts, and a seized computer for 36 days. The Court found penalties of EUR 5,000 per day appropriate for the first 18-day period and EUR 2,500 per day for the subsequent 18 days, acknowledging that penalties also serve a punitive function even where the obligation has since been fulfilled. Costs deferred to the main proceedings.
