notable
Düsseldorf Local Division grants, ex-parte, an application for inspection and evidence preservation under Art. 60 UPCA and R. 192, 196, 197 RoP against Swissbit AG and Swissbit Germany AG concerning the 'Swissbit Cloud-TSE 2' product allegedly infringing fiskaly's unitary patent EP 4 285 308 B8. The court relies on the German BSI certification of the accused product as a credible basis for likely realisation of certain claim features (6.1-6.4a, 6.5) while finding that the remaining features (6.4b, 6.6) cannot be substantiated without on-site inspection of source code, configuration data and certification files. Ex-parte issuance is justified by the risk that evidence could be relocated to the applicants' Swiss site outside the UPC's reach, and a pending protective letter from the defendants does not bar the order because the purpose of inspection is precisely to close the applicant's evidentiary gap. The decision follows the CoA's settled distinction between the relaxed urgency standard for evidence preservation (R. 194.2(a) RoP) and the strict urgency test for provisional injunctions (R. 209.2(b), 211.4 RoP), and refuses to undertake more than a cursory validity assessment absent clear indications of invalidity.
