Ep 2: UPC Basics - Part 2

In our second episode of You, me & the UPC, our patent litigation experts, Charlie French and Naomi Hazenberg, provide further insights and early figures for the new UPC system, which opened its doors on 1 June 2023.They explore:The different courts of the UPC: local and regional divisions, the Central Division and the Court of Appeal.The role of Milan in the re-formed Central Division.UPC judges and language of proceedings.The first cases – where they were filed and what we know so far.Note: It was announced on 22 July 2023, shortly after this episode was recorded, that AutoStore and Ocado had reached a global settlement of their patent litigation claims. It is therefore expected that the UPC proceedings between Ocado and AutoStore that are referred to in this episode will now be withdrawn.Looking for part 1?
