UPC_CoA_614/2025

The President of the Court of Appeal dismissed the petition for review of the Registrar's decision refusing to enter the anonymised applicant on the UPC representative list. The applicant held a certificate from Politecnico di Milano dated 1 March 2024, listed under Rule 12.1(a) EPLC Rules, but filed the registration application on 18 April 2025, after the 3 June 2024 deadline. The applicant argued the deadline applied only to acquisition of the qualification, not to registration, but the President rejected this interpretation. The transitional period was found not to violate equality and proportionality principles.
