| schestowitz | Flexitime - Ms. Brimelow's Farewell present ... | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | New, hastily drafted flexitime guidelines are being imposed during the last breath of President | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | Brimelow's administration. These new flexitime guidelines are similar enough to the previous | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | version that most colleagues who have opted in voluntarily can reasonably live with them. | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | However, the process by which these "trust-based" regulations were developed and subsequently | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | applied to all staff raises serious concerns. | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | The flexitime review process initiated in 2009 was advertised as collecting feedback, analysing it | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | and establishing what changes are needed to provide a better system for all concerned. In | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | practice, feedback from staff and its representation has been dismissed, legal concerns ignored, | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | and identified non-issues addressed, all resulting in no improvement (to put it mildly) of the | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | previous guidelines. It is particularly worrying when the administration presents a document in the | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | GAC that states "ιτ ισ νοτ ιντενδεδ το δεπριπε ... ανψ εμπλοψεε" of "ανψ αχθυιρεδ ορ χοντραχτυαλ | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | ριγητσ", while at the same time their legal opinions try to demonstrate that staff has none of these | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | rights with regard to working time regulations. On top of this, the administration's nominees even | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | made it clear in the GAC that this statement was by no means a commitment to protect employees' | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | rights. In the following, please find some hints on how to survive with the new guidelines - which | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | allegedly should bring you more flexibility. Please refer to your local staff committee for specific | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | issues. | Jan 14 06:25 |

| schestowitz | Opt out in order to be able to preserve your rights if you decide to later on file an appeal. | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | We suggest that staff who have opted in should opt out before 30 June. You may opt out by | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | sending an e-mail to flexitime@epo.org, ideally with a copy to your local staff | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | committee and possibly your line manager. | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | Use up your current time credit if you are already in the current flexitime system | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | (introduced in 2008). The new guidelines supersede those of 2008 and it is not clear how | Jan 14 06:25 |
| schestowitz | the new guidelines will take account of time credit from the 2008 guidelines. | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | Keep track of what your working time would be without the imposed change, as the | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | outcome of appeals will take time. | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | Watch out for the 3 month deadline for filing an appeal. | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | As we have just received the exact wording of this last minute decision, we obviously need some | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | more time to carry out a full legal assessment in order to provide relevant models of appeals that | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | may be filed by staff members. | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | Meanwhile, we suggest that you keep in touch with your local staff representation and report any | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | issues and possible questions. | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | The Central Staff Committee | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | " | Jan 14 06:26 |
| schestowitz | " | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | Intervention of the Central Staff Committee on CA/56/10 ("Single Patent | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | Process - status report") | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | The Single Patent Process programme (SPP) is the largest enterprise ever | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | undertaken by the EPO, with current estimated costs of 240 million EUR. The Staff | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | Committee has already acknowledged before this Committee and the Council that | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | SPP has real potential to benefit staff through more efficient procedures and better | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | tools. However, some of the changes foreseen under SPP are fundamental, and go | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | to the core of the way that both examiners and formalities officers will process patent | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | applications in the future. | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | In this respect, SPP will have an impact on staffing levels in Patent Administration in | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | particular. It is argued that Patent Administration will become increasingly overstaffed, | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | starting in 2011, due in part to the realisation of benefits foreseen under SPP. As you | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | can imagine, staff in Patent Administration view the alleged "overstaffing" with great | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | concern and anxiety in these difficult economic times. | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | The Staff Committee therefore strongly recommends delaying some envisaged SPP | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | changes, as is implied in paragraph 16 of CA/56/10, as the principle means to | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | manage "overstaffing". We believe that such a delay, in combination with current | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | rates of retirement and voluntary redeployments, can resolve the problem. | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | Additionally, these changes under SPP will potentially affect the current roles and | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | responsibilities of both examiners and formalities officers as outlined and set down in | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | the European Patent Convention. While this issue is implicitly addressed in | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | paragraph 18 of the status report with reference to the responsibility of the RtB | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | domain for "legal issues", it remains unclear what these will be or how they will be | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | addressed. | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | The Staff Committee would therefore like to know what changes will necessitate | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | amendments to the EPC so as to realise the envisaged benefits which must offset | Jan 14 06:51 |
| schestowitz | the costs of the programme. | Jan 14 06:51 |

| schestowitz | 8-10 June 2010 | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | Intervention of the Central Staff Committee on CA/66/10 ("Introduction of a | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | funded system to finance the Health Insurance Scheme") | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | The Staff Committee has submitted a document on the funding of healthcare to the | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | Administrative Council in June in response to the Office's document CA/66/10. The | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | Staff Committee's document has been provided to you, the delegations to this Budget | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | & Finance Committee meeting, by letter of 2 June. | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | The Staff Committee recognises and supports the need for sound financing of the | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | EPO sickness insurance, and certainly wishes to maintain (or even improve) the | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | current levels of cover. However, in the present circumstances, as has been | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | mentioned by the President the Staff Committee and staff cannot support a principle | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | decision now to move to a funded scheme. I wish to emphasise that the Staff | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | Committee does not reject reform per se. However, we wish to avoid a "fait accompli" | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | as regards moving to funding given the open issues I will address in a moment. We | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | believe that the CA document submitted by the Central Staff Committee (CSC) not | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | only outlines clearly our concerns about the reform but, more importantly, also sets | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | out an alternative approach. | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | These concerns have been further elaborated in the opinions submitted to the | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | President by the members of the General Advisory Committee (GAC) nominated by | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | the CSC. These opinions are negative, but deal in considerable detail with the | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | current document CA/66/10, and two further versions thereof submitted to the GAC. | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | We believe that these opinions should be provided to the delegations. | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | The Staff Committee appreciates the Office's suggestion to hold staff contributions at | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | the current maximum level for a further 3 years. However, this does not address our | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | principle concerns. The issue is not simply about paying a bit more for sickness | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | insurance. The Office has argued that all that is requested of the delegations to | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | Budget & Finance Committee and the Administrative Council is a principle decision to | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | move to funding of the sickness insurance - the remaining details can be sorted out | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | later. However, the staff's negative experiences with the implementation of the New | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | Pension Scheme and the invalidity allowance, to name but two examples, make such | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | a proposal unacceptable to the Staff Committee. In both cases, promises made prior | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | to the decisions have not been fulfilled. The results are unintended and avoidable | Jan 14 06:52 |
| schestowitz | costs and consequences, unhappy staff and, ultimately, legal challenges (appeals). | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | Specifically the Staff Committee's concerns are: | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 1. the reform proposal appears not to be justified by the facts and arguments | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | currently on the table; | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 2. a full and proper analysis of the costs of continuing with the current scheme (a | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | PAYGO system, now assisted by a reserve fund (see CA/D 14/09) for the | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | liabilities of the Office) has not been done; | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 3. a full and proper actuarial study for a funded scheme has not yet been done; | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 4. an analysis of the financial risks and costs of moving to a funded scheme has | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | not been done. Mechanisms to contain those risks and costs have not been | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | developed; | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | sc10078cp | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 0.2.1/3.1/4.2.2 | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 98th Budget & Finance Committee meeting | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 8-10 June 2010 | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 5. the further cost containment measures agreed in a paritary Working Group | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | last year have not yet been put in place, and have thus had no possibility to | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | impact on health costs; | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 6. no legal provisions have been made to recognise the proposed fund in the | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | Convention, together with any paid-in contributions, as a special class of asset | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | (as is the case for the pension fund). As a result, the contributions paid into | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | such a fund are not adequately protected. Here I refer to the intervention of | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | the DE delegation which explicitly mentioned the re-allocation of funds | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | originally destined for after-service sickness insurance liabilities of pensioners. | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | 7. In general, the proposal as set out in CA/66/10 contains none of the | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | accompanying measures needed to make the move to a funded system | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | workable or secure for staff (or, for that matter, for the Office). | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | In conclusion, before taking any decision to move to a funded scheme for sickness | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | insurance, the Staff Committee proposes to first address these concerns in | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | accordance with the alternative approach outlined in the CA document of the CSC. In | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | addition, I request on behalf of the Staff Committee that the delegations to the | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | Budget & Finance Committee and the Administrative Council are provided with | Jan 14 06:53 |
| schestowitz | copies of the GAC opinions on CA/66/10 and further versions. | Jan 14 06:53 |

| schestowitz | After reading the section headed "But what did TPP say about IP?" one could be forgiven for thinking Chapter 18 was all about patents. Whilst the IPKat can at times be very patent-centric, this write-up really doesn't give the full picture. | Jan 14 11:43 |
| schestowitz | All the current IP rights, including developing areas such as GIs and trade secrets, are covered fairly comprehensively, although not, in my opinion, even-handedly. In summary, what chapter 18 seeks to do is impose First World standards on the other Parties in a heavy-handed way which quite obviously favours the USA and in particular its pharma and media sectors. For example all parties would be forced to extend their period of copyright | Jan 14 11:43 |
| schestowitz | protection to the US/EU standard of lifetime plus 70 years. There are extensive provisions for the use and enforcement of TPMs and RMI (Rights Management Information). as well as mandatory safe harbour protections - something which might run counter to current EU thoughts on the subject. Within the trade mark section there are extensive provisions for "well-known" trade marks to be recognised in territories where they are not actually | Jan 14 11:43 |
| -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-ipkitten.blogspot.com | The IPKat: Multilateralism v Bilateralism: What’s in it for international IP regulation? | Jan 14 11:43 | |
| schestowitz | registered; again, a clear nod towards US global Interests. If companies such as for example, Coca-Cola or Mercedes Benz, want their trade marks to be respected in other nations, they should fork out the fees and register them there, not rely on international treaties to give them preferential rights. (the Toyota Prius case comes to mind) | Jan 14 11:43 |
| schestowitz | And for reasons best known to the drafters, there are very detailed provisions for how to run a civil judicial regime for the benefit of claimants, with virtually no mention in the main Articles of the proposed treaty of limitations or exceptions which might favour defendants. For example, Article 18.21 'Exceptions' consists of just two lines related to a fair use exception within trade mark use. Any other references, such as they are, to | Jan 14 11:43 |
| schestowitz | what we might recognise as fair use / fair dealing exceptions are buried in the ancilliary notes and derogations. Compare this situation to a weak and non-specific Article on the Public Domain, and another on Exhaustion of rights, and you have all you need to know about whose interests TPP was intended to serve. | Jan 14 11:43 |
| schestowitz | TPP is not a trade treaty, it's a piece of modern day economic imperialism with all the advantages stacked against the less wealthy nations. Let's hope that if CPTPP ever comes to fruitition (without the guiding wisdom of the USA) it does a much better job with regard to IPRs. | Jan 14 11:43 |

| schestowitz | I think what Goestoofar is trying to say is the following; | Jan 14 11:43 |
| schestowitz | your post invites the CJEU to rubber stamp the German Court's analysis; never a good thing-why refer? | Jan 14 11:43 |
| schestowitz | the better argument as to why this has been referred is that the German Court does appear to have doubts that the outcome could be so clear cut and is inviting the CJEU to say surely not. | Jan 14 11:43 |

| schestowitz | 8-11 December 2009 | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | Intervention on CA/160/09 - Workshops on Fee Reform and Sustainable Financing of | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | the European Patent System, Summary Report | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | Taking a positive attitude and looking at those statements in CA/160709 with which we can | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | agree, the Staff Committee notes the commitment to predictability and harmonisation and | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | to evidence based policy as stated in the document. However, we fear that the working | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | documents and CA/160/09 do not live up the these honourable goals. | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | Indeed, there are indications that information is presented in a biased way to support front- | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | loading of the fee system, on the basis of unsubstantiated claims regarding the incentives | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | of applicants and staff and missing information. We offer some examples: | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | It is alleged that applicants are general abusing the patent system and that front-loading | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | offers the solution. In fact no data have been presented to support this allegation. In | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | addition, significant withdrawal rates pre- and post-grant indicate more fair behaviour. No | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | data is presented to estimate impact on fee policy of any gaming/abuse which might be | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | present. | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | It is also stated that the EPO's finances are based on a pyramid-type financial model. | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | However, again no data are presented other than "model" data based on filing year 2008. | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | This statement was based on an overlay of the individual cumulative cash flows for three | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | filing years, so this cannot be viewed as an indication of the true cash flow for the Office. | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | It is further stated that "peverse incentives" exist in the EPO to apply a "do nothing, | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | earn more" approach. In fact the evidence indicates that this is not the case: processing | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | times show a downward trend, while production an increasing one. The basis appears to | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | be an unrealistic simulation assuming faster decision-taking at constant cost. In addition, | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | the maintenance fee levels point to a different conclusion: | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | According to the data available from CA/50/09 (draft budget) the EPO has nothing to gain | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | overall from delaying grant. Applicants, on the other hand, do have a significant financial | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | incentive to delay grant. | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | As far as staff is concerned, it is furthermore argued that remuneration is not linked to | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | performance. However, as a result of the new career schemes introduced almost 10 years | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | ex09178cp | Jan 14 18:23 |
| schestowitz | 3.1/1.3.2/0.2.1 | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | 120th Administrative Council meeting | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | 8-11 Decemberago, incentives to "perform" have been provided as a driver for accelerating career | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | progression. | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | Finally, the document indicates that it presents a complete picture. However we note the | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | omission of: | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | 1. any analysis of the financing of other patent offices | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | 2. any presentation or analysis of the EPOs' real financial data of the last 30 years | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | 3. any proposed alternatives to the front-loading of fees | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | As a result the Staff Committee is of the opinion that CA/160/09 does not provide a | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | balanced view of the EPO's situation with regard to fees and the incentives which these | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | provide. In the opinion of the Staff Committee possible approaches to achieve a balanced | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | and stable fees system are (see also CA/99/09): | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | 1. introduction of indexation of fee levels | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | 2. maintenance of the balance between procedural fees and maintenance fees | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | through: | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | • avoidance of unilateral front-loading because this | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | § acts as entry barrier ('tax on innovation') | Jan 14 18:24 |
| schestowitz | § disturbs the balance between filing routes in Europe | Jan 14 18:24 |

| schestowitz | 8-11 December 2009 | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | Introduction of CA/175/09 - Study by Bruno van Pottelsberghe | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | The Staff Committee brings this study to the attention of the Council because it makes a | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | number of key observations concerning the ongoing development of the European patent | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | system. These are: fragmentation of the patent system in Europe, an observed lack of | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | coordination of national and EU and EPO policies affecting patenting in Europe, the need | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | for a strong role for NPOs in supporting innovation at national level by offering much- | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | needed IP services, as well as the need for a fee policy which encourages true innovations, | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | while discouraging purely speculative applications, patent thickets, trolling and the like. | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | Prof. van Pottelsberghe highlights the various PPH (Patent Prosecution Highway) bilateral | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | cooperation schemes as initiatives typical of the current fragmentation and resulting from | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | perceived inadequacies of the while clearly stating that the EU Patent should enjoy (by far) | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | the highest priority. In the process he questions: | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | 1. the possibility of keeping to a harmonised, high level of patent quality under a PPH | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | cooperation scheme | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | 2. the effectiveness of PPH to reduce backlogs in Europe | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | The danger is highlighted that, on a global level, companies would choose to file several | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | applications with the cheapest office with the lowest quality examination services and then | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | extend these applications to other offices under the accelerated treatment facility. This is | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | likely to drive the global patent quality to the lowest level available ("race to the bottom") | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | with an accompanying proliferation of various, non-harmonised quality levels in Europe | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | which he labels "quality fragmentation" of patent protection. This is particularly | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | disadvantageous to Small and Medium sized enterprises using the system. | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | He also identifies a "vicious circle" resulting from the specific problems of the USPTO. | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | While it is understandable that the USPTO looks for support outside the US, Prof. van | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | Pottelsberghe warns of trading quality against speed and of "importing" the patent inflation | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | so evident in the US to Europe. As long as there is any disincentive for applicants to file | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | first in Europe, due to costly and fragmented European procedures, applicants will keep | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | filing at the USPTO, getting work done by Patent offices in Europe. The author also thinks | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | that through the PCT procedure the EPO subsidises innovation world-wide as a | Jan 14 18:25 |
| schestowitz | consequence. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | Prof. van Pottelsberghe's recommendation is to focus on the harmonization of the | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | European Patent system by moving on with the EU Patent and review the overall | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | governance of the European patent system. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | My colleague of the Berlin Staff Committee will carry on with further details and the | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | governance aspects of the study. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | Prof. van Pottelsberghe highlights the substantial drawbacks of the fragmentation of | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | litigation and validation procedures in Europe and the drawbacks of the fragmentation of | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | search and grant procedures. Due to the possible overlap of national validation procedures | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | and EPO opposition procedures, a fragmentation in time appears. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | A further point highlighted by Prof. van Pottelsberghe is the fragmentation of legislative | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | procedures in Europe, divided between the EPC and the EU. This fragmentation is said to | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | ex09173cp | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | 3.1/3.2/0.2.1 | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | 120th Administrative Council meeting | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | 8-11 Decemberrender the harmonised development and implementation of patent law, competition law, | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | law supporting small and medium size enterprises very difficult to coordinate. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | He also highlights the urgent need for SMEs to be offered more efficient access to patent | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | information. A further highlighted problem is the lack of involvement of civil society in | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | general. Of course, the fragmentation of the patent system and patent legislation | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | exacerbates the high costs of the system as a whole. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | In response to most of the serious problems identified by Prof. van Pottelsberg, the EU | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | Patent seems to provide solutions: unified litigation and validation procedures, gearingpatent legislation with other relevant EU legislation, notably legislation for SMEs, EU funds | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | to be used for improved patent information activities, substantial reduction of costs of the | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | system, that will be much welcomed by SMEs. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | A last important point only briefly touched by Prof. van Pottelsberghe, but under close | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | scrutiny from a number of qualified commentators from outside the EPO, is the questionconstitutionality of the law making under the EPC. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | In order to launch the EPO in the 70s, the pragmatic legislative setup of this organisation | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | was perhaps acceptable. Nowadays Europe has developed a unique system of | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | international cooperation, the EU, that meets highest constitutionality standards | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | (democratic legitimacy, transparency, separation of powers) and that is now, since 1 | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | December 2009, explicitly entitled to legislate in the field of patent law. The | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | constitutionality gap between EPC and EU procedures has become striking and may | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | become an embarrassment for the EPO anytime. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | For all these reasons, the staff of the EPO welcomes the EU patent and the unchallenged | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | choice of entrusting the EPO with the processing of EU Patent applications. Of course,staff expects the financing of the EPO to be put on a sound basis in the new situation. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | Annual fees should be shaped such that the EPO is not hampered in its new task. Staff | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | also expect, as recommended by Prof. van Pottelsberghe, to keep to EPO quality as | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | benchmark for patent search and examination in Europe. Post-grant harmonisation should | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | not be traded against pre-grant fragmentation of the patent examination. | Jan 14 18:26 |
| schestowitz | The staff of the EPO would like to use this opportunity to congratulate the EU Commission | Jan 14 18:27 |
| schestowitz | and the Swedish presidency for the huge preparatory work and the landmark agreement | Jan 14 18:27 |
| schestowitz | achieved on 4th December 2009 and encourage the Spanish and Belgian presidencieskeep the EU Patent very high on the agenda. | Jan 14 18:27 |

| schestowitz | " | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | Again, as I had asked on a different thread of this blog, how can the complaint be inadmissible if suspending the ratification procedure requires the admissibility of the constitutional complaint challenging it? If it was so clearly inadmissible as some would like to make us believe now, why should the court bother and not throw it out immediately? | Jan 15 09:29 |
| -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-patentblog.kluweriplaw.com | German Bar Association thinks complaint against Unified Patent Court is not admissible - Kluwer Patent Blog | Jan 15 09:29 | |
| schestowitz | Don’t come with explanations like “The court has not formally decided to stop the ratification.They have (politely) asked the president of the German federation to not sign, as the impact of signing and subsequent declaration of invalidity of the UPCA would be inforseeable…” Utter nonsense and completely ignorant of the underyling legal rationale! To those in the know, it is clear that the whole “suspension request approach” | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | actually serves to avoid the FCC having to grant a preliminary order against a different state power and thus from having to interfere with the constitutional principle of the separation of powers. Had the President objected to the FCC’s request, there can be no doubt that the court would have ordered the suspension. | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | " | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | "v" | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | " | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | no, the BundesVerfassungsGericht has not yet formally decided the admissibility. | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | Therefore comments in that direction are allowable, and to be welcomed. | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | If they do not address all reasons im favour of admissibility, admissibility stands. | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | It seems, in my humble opinion, that the BVerfGer judges have prima facie made a preliminary decission, that the case is admissible and has merits. | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | But his does not prevent others from bringing arguments against admissibility. Final decission regarding admissibility will only follow later. | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | Also, the BVerfGer has in cases of European institutions (previous DG3/EPO cases, European Monetary Union/EURO, European Central Bank, ESFS/EURO, ESM/EURO, ECB and its buying of obligations, …) often decided along political will and practicalities, not always along the strict letter of law. And if all requested comments go in the same direction, chances are they might do so again. Maybe they use this request for opinions to “test the | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | waters” regarding political and public will? | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | (And yes, I know that current Bundespräsidenten would never ignore such a request, BUT German history has presidents which did ignore constitutional court requests. Pre-’44… And as current events show, such persons might come to such positions again. Watch Germanies close allies in Eastern Europe, and across the pond…. Germany is not immune to the same witch-hunt against professional/career politicians, which have been lobbied so often, | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | that they subconsciously start ignoring the lobbyists, contrary to politics newcomers which promise to ban lobbyists….) | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | We will likely never know. | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | " | Jan 15 09:29 |
| schestowitz | "Francesca, you do not appear to understand what I tried to explain to you. I take that home and stop here. A closing remark: Your statement “And if all requested comments go in the same direction, chances are they might do so again” reveals what the true motivation is behind the inadmissibility spin. And you really think that the FCC is unable to look through this charade? Good luck with this strategy!" | Jan 15 09:29 |

Kind of similar to the fact that each occurrence of the number 23 is not necessarily anything more meaningful than a cultural signifier which | Jan 16 18:35 |

| schestowitz | " | Jan 16 18:48 |
| schestowitz | I agree. It’s not even specific to phones: most products in general are built according to the same logic. Given the general public’s inability to think beyond the next 24 hours, how does building a product that’s easy to repair and maintain impact the manufacturer’s bottom line vs. building throwaway black boxes? Making the battery removable makes phones last longer, i.e. fewer phones are sold. Which manufacturer wants that? | Jan 16 18:48 |
| schestowitz | Which is why occasional bursts of common sense and care for the broader good from the EU (like the pressure to make phone manufacturers to use the same kind of charger, the fine Microsoft had to pay for abusing it’s it’s OS monopoly to promote other products etc.) is so needed and welcome, and why most phones should be forbidden for sale in the EU, at least. Alas, multi-billion dollar industries are extremely well equipped to sabotage | Jan 16 18:48 |

The USA has a slew of "doctrines" downstream of its "Doctrine of Equivalents", for example, "re-capture" and "ensnarement", to minimise the legal uncertainty and injustice entrained with the DoE.
