WEEK 31 2025: Confidentiality Clarified & Added Matter Revocations

Must-read CoA ruling on confidentiality, strict added-matter tests in Munich & Düsseldorf, and key lessons on procedure and costs.

This week at the UPC brings important lessons for practitioners.

Highlights:

Confidentiality requests clarified (CoA): If you don’t file a party-to-party secrecy request (R. 262A) with your submission, the information isn’t confidential. No second chances.
Added Matter: Both the Munich and Düsseldorf divisions revoked patents, with Düsseldorf applying a strict "beyond reasonable doubt" standard.
UPC rules take precedence: The Mannheim Division rejected reliance on German procedural law, reinforcing that the UPC’s Rules of Procedure govern.
Costs: The Milan Central Division slashed a recovery request, making clear costs must be proportionate and reasonable.
