notable
The Mannheim LD dismissed Centripetal's infringement action for EP 3 821 580 (network protection). The claimed 'broker' (feature 1.4) requires intelligent dynamic CAS selection based on threat metadata — not a pre-configured switch. Claimant failed to substantiate broker functionality after defendants' detailed technical denial in oral hearing. R. 171 RoP requires specific facts and proof. Conditional counterclaim (conditioned on infringement) permissible under RoP.
