Patent case: AIM Sport Development AG vs. Supponor, UPC

Proceedings on the merits and proceedings on provisional measures may be lodged separately before the UPC, but it may also be the case that as part of the infringement case provisional measures are requested. In such a case before the Helsinki local division the first instance court held that the UPC was not competent (see CFI 214/2023). In appeal it now appears that the proceedings on the merits and the proceedings on provisonal measures should be looked at individually when determining the deadline for appeal.
