Google Commerce Limited and Google Ireland Limited v. Ona Patents SL, order of the Court of Appeal of the UPC, 18 September 2024, Case no. UPC_CoA_349/2024, APL_38206/2024
Language of proceedings
HEADNOTE
– In addition to the circumstances stated by the Court of Appeal in its order of 17 April 2024 (APL_12116/2024, UPC_CoA_101/2024), when deciding on a request to change the language of proceedings into the language of the patent on grounds of fairness:
o the internal working language of the parties, the possibility of internal coordination and of support on technical issues are relevant circumstances;
o the fact that other proceedings between the parties are pending before a national court does not relate to the dispute, nor to the parties, and is as such of less relevance.
The entire order can be read here.
