The German Constitutional Court's Decision on Unitary Patent (UPC) is Very, Very Far

Mathieu Klos‏



Summary: There's no sign even remotely positive of the Unified Patent Court (UPC) Agreement (UPCA) being ratified; even UPC proponents have given up whatever remnants there were of hope

THERE is a very good reason why the European Patent Office (EPO) no longer mentions the UPC and even paid (by the EPO's PR budget) propagandists have given up.



"Notice how all those liars who floated fabricated rumours of decision by end of 2018 have been totally silent this past week."The handling of the famous complaint is hardly progressing and the latest decisions [1, 2] show no signs of progress either. Mathieu Klos, whose audience includes many UPC proponents,‏ initially predicted that a decision may arrive no sooner than 2020 and days ago he wrote: "The German Constitutional Court published its first two rulings of 2019. ( https://bit.ly/2Vs1tRD + https://bit.ly/2RCM5mB ). They are not about the UPC. Twelve weeks until 29 March. It is going to go to the wire. Nail-biting times for the UPC supporters."

He meant Team UPC. Nobody among the public supports UPC. Most people don't even know what it is (or are being lied to by Team UPC). Notice how all those liars who floated fabricated rumours of decision by end of 2018 have been totally silent this past week. The German Constitutional Court should not let itself be held hostage by this bunch of manipulative liars.
