Summary: It seems possible that in months to come the administrative body of the EPO will finally acknowledge that "breaking point" has been reached and it's time to reboot the Office

THE immunity and impunity of EPO management has been a theme of recent coverage here. We last wrote about it earlier today, focusing on what Benoît Battistelli had done in the Netherlands. After 3 years at the Office António Campinos is starting to see it all crumbling or falling down, starting with last summer's ILOAT ruling no. 4430 and then ILOAT ruling no. 4482, which is still very fresh. But why did it take so long? As noted in the video above, many of the people wronged are already dead, unable to claim or collect compensation from the Office.



The EPO got infiltrated by white-collar criminals, who in effect fronted for international (non-European) or multinational corporations with their patent litigation staff (in-house) and/or outside law firms. The solution to such a dire crisis must come from the outside, but the EU too is infiltrated. The EPO conflict has exposed a rotting unregulated system, which extends to EUIPO and even some courts. It won't be pretty, but "ordinary" EPO staff (such as patent examiners) are on the right side of history.
