schestowitz | Dear Attentive Observer, | Dec 28 06:36 |
schestowitz | the conflict between the FCC and the ECJ about the last word in interpreting EU Law in respect of the protection of national constitutional rights dates lasts for more than half a century (BVerfGE 37, 271 – Solange I) and it will hardly be solved in the context of the ratification of the UPCA. The FCC appears to mention it as a memento in pt. 106 of decision on the first complaint against the ratification. It is worthwhile to note | Dec 28 06:37 |
schestowitz | that this aspect is mentioned among the grounds of complaint held inadmissible. Neither your comment nor the reference therein does explain how the lack of substantiation stated by the FCC can be improved because any argumentation has to b based on a violation of the democratic principle laid down in Art. 38(1) of the German Constitution which the FCC in its prima facie assessment at pt. 106 does not see. | Dec 28 06:37 |
schestowitz | My comments have nothing to do with pro UPC or anti UPC, they are solely intended to contribute to a realistic assessment of the present situation. Quite a different question is whether it is wise to start the unitary patent system before a number of legal uncertainties have been clarified. In this respect, the most obvious choice would be to wait until the FCC has rendered its decisions on the pending cases concerning the EPO Boards of | Dec 28 06:37 |

schestowitz | Isn’t that a sad comment. It’s not a surprise that industry or law firms oppose Brexit: they have openly done so from the outset. Those who support it are mostly not employed in any industry affected by patents, or by trade. Schadenfreude is fun, but not if you are enjoying the discomfort of the wrong people. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | As for whether the UPC might one day encompass all EPC member states: it is possible, desirable and not beyond the wit of man, even is certain (changeable) aspects of the UPLA may make need to be changed. There is nothing inherently unconstitutional about international dispute resolution: we arbitrate every day. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | The real objection to a wider UPC seems to be narrow self interest of some private practice lawyers who think they personally benefit from a smaller UPC. It’s a mistake to think that the danger of broadening is that the UK firms will take the business: almost all of the UK firms who do patents are also German, French and Dutch: they will be there whatever happens. Keeping Bristows and Powell Gilbert out can’t really be that | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | significant. But the advantage of broadening is huge: it puts EPs above US patents as valuable assets. | Dec 28 06:39 |

schestowitz | Agreed. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | Just in case there is any doubt, my criticism of the UPC is not to be taken as resistance to greater harmony in Europe. Quite the reverse. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | In fact, now that the UK is out of the EU, the way is clear for the EU to harmonise not only its law on patent validity/patentability, but also its law on patent infringement. For validity, nothing the CJEU could do could improve on the established jurisprudence of the EPO. Leave it alone. Compared with the complexity of validity, trying infringement is a cakewalk. It should be quite easy, now, on the Mainland, with the help of Ireland, | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | to harmonize that. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | Coincidentally, there is a piece today in a US patent law blog (link below) where you can read how it was China, quite recently, that invented the Problem-Solution Approach to inventive step.

schestowitz | Attentive, I’m worried about the balance of forces, between those who wish to see stability in Europe, and those who wish actively to de-stabilise it. Those in the latter camp must be rubbing their hands with glee, at the way in which Europe is so busy de-stabilizing its own patent law, all by itself. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | For the USA and China, for example, a stable Europe is a nuisance. For all those States lying along the eastern borders of Europe, States with no experience of representative democracy or the Rule of Law, a stable Europe insisting upon those basics of human rights is a constant irritation. For the UK, now fully “open for business” from the world’s worst regimes, their tax-evading citizens and their progeny in need of a “world- | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | beating” education, the rival attraction of a stable Europe is a nuisance. If Europe’s patent law falls into disarray, this is all grist for their mill, to show how, quite simply, mainland Europe is a Trumpian LOSER. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | Thinking back to what has been achieved since 1973, the triumph of the EPC, it makes me sad to see the present decline. The lobbyists are expert at presenting the interests of their sociopathic corporate clients as being in the interests of society’s “general welfare” (to use the splendid expression found in the Constitution of the USA). Sadly, today, none of the three branches of The State (legislative, adjudicate, administrative | Dec 28 06:39 |

schestowitz | I am the last to be against harmonisation in IP matters over the whole of the EU and of Europe in general. But a revived EPLA is not on the table. One might regret it, like Brexit, but the CJEU made clear that it is not compatible with Union law. Although I fully understand “European Industry advocate”, I do not see a possibility to revive the EPLA. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | Dear Max Drei, with the UPC in its present cladding, the way is by no ways “clear for the EU to harmonise its law on patent validity/patentability”. And this is for two reasons: the UPC does not apply to the whole of the EU and there is another instance which is able to decide upon validity of patents having effects within the EU, i.e. the EPO, albeit only during oppositions, but at the fraction of the cost of an action before the | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | present UPC. Whether UK has left the EU is irrelevant in this matter. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | The problem is that by separating the grant of the title with the exploitation of it, the fathers of the EPC made it nearly impossible to unite the granting system under the EPC, which is a convention open to non-EU member states, with the specificity of Union law and its necessary adherence to CJEU rulings valid exclusively within EU member states. The juxtaposition of two instances deciding on validity/patentability is the original | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | sin of the UPC. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | A real unification could be reached as far infringement is concerned by for instance installing a general bifurcation. A court like the UPC could decide on infringement and issue judgements valid over the whole of the EU, whereby the EPO would decide on validity for all EPC member states, i.e. covering not only EU member states but many more European states. | Dec 28 06:39 |
schestowitz | This would not only need a revision of Art 99 EPC, but also to guarantee the independence of the Boards of Appeal. This is not the case presently under R 12c and 12d. As the judges sitting at the UPC are as well to be re-appointed, their independence is also at stake. | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | For non-EU members, infringement would still remain a national issue as EPLA is dead. | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | Such a solution would however not be of liking of all the lawyers firms, and not only in the UK, as they would only be dealing with infringement as is presently the case, and not any longer on validity. It is therefore necessary to highlight “the narrow self-interest of some private practice lawyers who think they personally benefit from a smaller UPC”. | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | Those people claim that the UPC is compatible with EU law, but it has never been tested beforehand. I wonder why the UPC has not be sent to the CJEU for opinion as it was the case for the EPLA. | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | It has occurred in the past that the Implementing Rules of the EPC were amended after issuance of legislation only valid within the EU, cf. Directive 98/44/EC and the following “Brüstle” decision of the CJEU, cf. R 28(1). Art 28(1) clarified the issues under Art 53(a). | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | R 28(2) was adopted by the Administrative Council of the EPO following a Notice issued by the EU Commission that the EU legislator’s intention when adopting Directive 98/44/EC, was to exclude from patentability products (plants/animals and plant/animal parts) that are obtained by means of essentially biological processes. Art 28(2) clarified the issues under Art 53(b) which was however in contradiction with decisions G 2/12 and G 2/13 | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | of the EBA. G 3/19 is the result of the unwillingness of the member states of the EPC to amend Art 53(b) accordingly. | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | In both cases there was a consensus going further than just the EU member states and including all EPC member states. | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | It is however not guaranteed that such a consensus will be reached in all questions and following any decision of the CJEU or the UPC. Such decisions are not directly applicable with full effect at the EPO, especially now after the Brexit is becoming effective and UK being still a member state of the EPC. | Dec 28 06:40 |
schestowitz | Here again the fundamental discrepancy between the grant and the exploitation of the EP is a hurdle which cannot be overcome with Art 142-149 EPC. | Dec 28 06:40 |
