| -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-ipkitten.blogspot.com | GuestPost: Do certain panel compositions of the UPC Court of Appeal breach article 6 ECHR? - The IPKat | Apr 03 16:42 | |
| schestowitz | "Further to the problem mentioned by Lionel Martin, there are other problems under Art 6(1) ECHR. <br /><br />It is first the provisional allocation of duties originally allocated to London to the Paris and Munich sections of the central division and second, the opening of a Milan section of the central division. <br /><br />The provisional allocation of duties was decided by the presidium of the UPC in blatant breach of Art 7(2) UPCA a | Apr 03 16:42 |
| schestowitz | nd of Annex II of the same, even before the UPC actually opened its doors. Where was it ever seen that a court can decide by itself to amend and interpret its founding treaty and thereby willingly ignore Art 31 and 32 VCLT?<br /><br />The amendment of the UPC by the Administrative Committee of the UPC under Art 87(2) UPCA seems as well lacking any legal basis. According to Art 87(2), the Administrative Committee may amend the UPCA to b | Apr 03 16:42 |
| schestowitz | ring it into line with an international treaty relating to patents or Union law. Which international treaty on patents or Union law can be use as pretext to amend the UPCA as it has been done? In the decision of the committee there is also no trace of Art 31 and 32 VCLT. <br /><br />Art 87(2) UPCA has been designed to align the UPCA to legislations adopted in all contracting states, be it under a international treaty on patents or Union | Apr 03 16:42 |
| schestowitz | law, for example a EU SEP or SPC regime. <br /><br />Art 87(2) UPCA was never devised in order to adapt the UPCA to Brexit. This is even more the case, since the UPCA does even not contain any exit clause. The withdrawal of the UK with a simple “Note Verbale” is as well doubtful.<br /><br />It does thus not come as a surprise when the Court of Appeal decided to get read of the 5 member composition for reasons of efficiency. Efficie | Apr 03 16:42 |
| schestowitz | ncy was also the reason invoked by the presidium when it decided to change the allocation of duties, even before the UPC opened its doors. <br /><br />What matter here is the rule of law and not some efficiency considerations. Parties and the public at large should be able to trust a court. This is the reason d'être of Art 6(1) ECHR. Why has it blatantly be ignored with all those "adaptations" of the UPCA?" | Apr 03 16:42 |

| schestowitz | <prg> Are there issues with the site again? I'm now getting a timeout instead of a 500. | Apr 03 18:04 |
| schestowitz | <janrinok> It is working for me | Apr 03 18:04 |
| schestowitz | <prg> Now it's working for me again, too. | Apr 03 18:04 |
| schestowitz | <janrinok> We were getting brief timeouts yesterday but we think it is external to our site. Perhaps linode/akamai are doing something. | Apr 03 18:04 |

| schestowitz | "One of the headaches in this book has been its constant violation of one of my usual writing rules: do the hard part first. When I approach a new project, I rank the contents in order of difficulty. Usually, there’s at least one thing I haven’t previously done. Those are the things I need to write first. Writing the stuff I know how to do is pretty straightforward, but the unknowns wreck my plans. RYOMS could only be written in one | Apr 03 18:40 |
| schestowitz | way, though. The services must be set up and documented in a particular order, without shortcuts. If the book said “This is wrong but we’ll come back and fix it later,” I know perfectly well that none of you would go back and fix it. We have to set it up right the first time. Which led to some extra work. I use pyspf-milter so I wrote about it, but rspamd turns out to be a wiser choice. Retreat, refactor, rearrange, try again." | Apr 03 18:40 |
