Order from the Milan Central Division dated 27 February 2025 permitting SharkNinja Italy S.R.L. to withdraw its revocation action against Dyson Technology Limited (EP 2 043 492) following a settlement agreement. Claimant had filed a stay request on 3 January 2025 on grounds of a settlement term sheet, subsequently requested withdrawal on 3–4 February 2025, and Dyson consented. The proceedings were declared closed. A 60% reimbursement of court fees (EUR 12,000) was granted as the action was withdrawn before closure of the written procedure (R. 370.9(b)(i) RoP). No cost decision was required.
