schestowitzNo one has mentioned 'added matter' in their comments, but I am hopeful the UPC will develop a philosophy closer to the lenient tests used in national courts. It is difficult to exactly state the UK courts' philosophy, but it seems to be a 'new information' test rather than what is disclosed directly by the words of the patent monopoly or complex imagined combinations of features. I hope the UPC will consider added matter the preserJan 13 04:01
schestowitzve of the EPO, and once a patent monopoly is granted by the EPO added matter no longer needs to be assessed with the same strictness as the EPO. I think that is a sensible approach given that added matter is really a 'formal' issue rather than a substantive issue, but at the moment I fear the UPC is being a little too experimental to really be conscious of how it wants to develop its case law. I believe it would not be helpful for tJan 13 04:01

schestowitz"We do indeed seem to be in agreement on this occasion. I think that this happens more often than you might realise. I still live in hope that we can somehow find common ground (if not complete agreement) on the topic where our views seem to differ quite sharply.<br /><br />For me, the biggest failing in the Munich LD's decision is the failure to identify the <i>national</i> law that determines the acts against which a <b>unitary</bJan 13 04:01
schestowitz> patent monopoly provides protection.<br /><br />It is essential for the profession, and for the broader public, that we gain an understanding of how the UPC will interpret Article 5.3 of Regulation 1257/2012. This is not least because there will undoubtedly be cases in which the parties will be <i>very</i> keen for the UPC to rule upon this issue. Indeed, it is easy to envisage cases in which the selection of one national law overJan 13 04:01
schestowitz another might determine the outcome. For example, where the so-called &quot;Bolar&quot; exemption might provide a defence to infringement, patentees will want the UPC to select a national law having a narrow Bolar, whereas the alleged infringers will instead want the UPC to select a national law having a broad Bolar (eg German national law).<br /><br />I cannot recall whether the interpretation of Article 5.3 of Regulation 1257/201Jan 13 04:01
schestowitz2 has yet been pertinent to any other cases before the UPC. However, given the thorny issues that it throws up, I suspect that most divisions of the court will follow the Munich LD's example ... by avoiding, for as long as possible, any attempts to interpret that provision."Jan 13 04:01
