1. Pursuant to Art. 49 (2) UPCA the contracting member states may designate one or more official languages of the European Patent Office as language of proceedings of their local divisions in addition to an official language of the European Union which is an official language of the contracting member state in whose territory the local division Düsseldorf is located (Art. 49 (1) UPCA). The Federal Republic of Germany has made use of this possibility and has admitted English as an official language of the European Patent Office in addition to German as an official language of the European Union. 2. Pursuant to Rule 14.2(a) RP the applicant may choose either of the two languages mentioned as the language of proceedings. 3. Rule 14.2(b)(4) and (5) of the Rules of Procedure provides that, where the law of a Member State with more than one official language so provides, the proceedings are to be conducted in the official language of the defendant and that, where there are two or more defendants with different official languages, the applicant may choose a language from among the official languages concerned. According to the wording of the provision, the official language means the official language of the Contracting State. The Federal Republic of Germany does not provide for any official languages within the meaning of this Rule other than German, in particular English. 4. Pursuant to Rule 4.2 of the Rules of Procedure, a party may also submit a document in paper form to the Registry or to a branch of the Registry which cannot be filed electronically because the electronic case management system of the Court is no longer functioning. For this purpose, the document must be delivered to the premises of the sub-registry or the document must otherwise reach the sub-registry within the time limit. |

If an appeal is lodged under R.220.2 RoP and leave is granted in the impugned order itself, the Statement of appeal must be lodged within 15 days of service of that order containing the decision to grant leave. If the decision to grant leave to appeal is contained in a separate order on a request to that effect (which separate order must be issued within 15 days of the impugned order, cf R.220.3 RoP), the Statement of appeal has to be lodged within 15 days from the date of service of this separate order containing the decision to grant leave to appeal. |

- Art. 9(1) UPCA must be interpreted such that if the subject matter of the appeal proceedings is of a non-technical nature only, and there are no technical issues at stake, the Court of Appeal may decide the matter without the need to assign two technically qualified judges to its panel of three legally qualified judges. This is without prejudice to the fact that once technically qualified judges have been assigned, they will, as judges, have to deal with the entire dispute, including the non-technical aspects thereof. - When a request to make written pleadings and evidence available to a member of the public is made pursuant to R.262.1(b) RoP, the interests of a member of the public of getting access to the written pleadings and evidence must be weighed against the interests mentioned in Art. 45 UPCA. These interests include the protection of confidential information and personal data (’the interest of one of the parties or other affected persons’) but are not limited thereto. The general interest of justice and public order also have to be taken into account. The general interest of justice includes the protection of the integrity of proceedings. - A reasoned request under R.262.1(b) RoP is not the same, and has to be distinguished from, an application under R.262.3 RoP. |

1. R. 9.3 (a) of the Rules of Procedure authorises the Court to extend time periods. However, this possibility should only be used with caution and only in justified exceptional cases. 2. Such an exceptional case regularly exists if access to a pleading in the unredacted version was initially restricted to the representatives due to an application for protection of confidential information (R. 262A RoP). The only way to ensure that the party concerned can exchange information with its representatives, develop a strategy taking into account the arguments of the other party and, where necessary, provide technical and/or economic input, is to grant access to the information in question to the party's employees with the relevant knowledge. 3. The Rules of Procedure provide for a time period of two months for the filing of the Reply to the Statement of defence which includes a Counterclaim for revocation (R. 29 (a) RoP). This time period must be available to the claimant and its representatives in order to jointly develop a defence strategy based on all the facts and to file pleadings on the basis of that strategy. Therefore, an extension of the time period is, in principle, granted upon request. 4. The same applies to the Counterclaim for revocation. The principles of due process and the right to be heard require that a party must be able to reconcile its arguments on (non)-infringement with those on validity and possible amendment of the claims, in particular in its first submission on validity. |

1. Gemäß Art. 51 Abs. 2 EPGÜ sehen alle Kammern des Gerichts erster Instanz, soweit dies angemessen erscheint, auf Verlangen einer Partei eine Verdolmetschung vor, um die Partei bei der mündlichen Verhandlung zu unterstützen. Dieser allgemeine Grundsatz wird in R. 109 VerfO näher konkretisiert. 2. Ziel der Simultanverdolmetschung ist es, den Beteiligten, welche der Verfahrenssprache nicht oder nicht in ausreichendem Maße mächtig sind, eine aktive Teilnahme an der mündlichen Verhandlung zu ermöglichen. Dabei kann die Verdolmetschung sowohl in als auch aus der Verfahrenssprache erfolgen (vgl. R. 109.1 VerfO). 3. Eine Verdolmetschung ist nach Art. 51 Abs. 2 EPGÜ allerdings nur in dem Umfang vorgesehen, wie diese angemessen erscheint, um eine Partei in der mündlichen Verhandlung zu unterstützen. Im Übrigen verbleibt es bei der Notwendigkeit, in der Verfahrenssprache zu verhandeln. Sind einzelne Parteivertreter der Verfahrenssprache mächtig, besteht weder Grund noch Veranlassung, ihnen die Verhandlung in einer anderen Sprache als der Verfahrenssprache unter Einsatz einer Simultanverdolmetschung zu gestatten. |
