The Milan Central Division dismissed Zentiva K.S. and Zentiva Portugal's application to intervene under Rule 313 RoP in infringement proceedings between Accord Healthcare and Novartis concerning EP 2 501 384. The court held that parallelism between cases or the potential impact of one judgment on another does not establish the legal interest required for intervention, and that the intervening party's requested remedies must be non-contradictory to those of the supported party.
