In view of the approaching end of the Sunrise period, we are striving to ensure that all those who want to file opt-outs can do so, and this still within the Sunrise period.
In its meeting of 8 May 2023, the Presidium of the Unified Patent Court decided that, as from 1 June 2023, actions pending before the central division related to patents in IPC section (A) shall be assigned to the seat in Paris while actions related to patents in IPC section (C) shall be assigned to the section in Munich.
Dear Users,
As you are aware, we are getting close to the end of the sunrise period.
The resulting acceleration of the pace of opt-outs being filed during these last weeks means that the CMS is now under considerable pressure.
The UPC will offer a dedicated CMS platform to allow external users to practice EIF functionalities. This practice period will start as of the 29th of May and will last for an unlimited duration.
Please be informed that the API giving the status of the request (requestStatus) returns now some additional status.
The latest documentation has been published in the website and is available for you : A2A Public Version – V8 – Guide v2.7 (page 15).
UPC IT Team
Please be advised that the scheduled technical maintenance on the CMS has been successfully completed. Therefore, the CMS is available again starting from today 07/04/2023 12 noon CET.
