    Application RoP 223Public

    Summary: The Court of Appeal dismissed Black Sheep Retail Products' application for suspensive effect of an appeal against the Hague Local Division's infringement decision (10 October 2025), which found EP 2 432 351 valid and infringed and ordered BSRP to disclose information to HL Display. The Court held that suspensive effect is the exception, not the rule, and that enforcement of information orders may only be suspended in exceptional circumstances. No such exceptional circumstances (manifest error, or appeal becoming devoid of purpose) were shown. BSRP failed to establish that providing the information would cause irreparable harm.
