Summary: Procedural order from Munich Local Division dated 1 September 2025 granting KNAPP Smart Solutions GmbH's application for a 6-day extension of the deadline for its reply to the defence and the response to the counterclaim for revocation (including any patent amendment application) to 9 September 2025. The extension was justified by mutual vacation absences among involved persons and consented to by the defendant Becton Dickinson Rowa Germany GmbH. The order notes that irregularities in the CMS upload dates caused uncertainty about the exact deadline.
