notable
The Mannheim LD judge-rapporteur fixed the costs of the separated first-instance part of an infringement action concerning non-UPCA states, after the claimant withdrew its appeal, and awarded EUR 12,791.10 of EUR 15,894.82. A revised exhibit marking which invoice entries belong to the application corrects a deficiency of substantiation and is not late, but an amount above the sum stated in the application cannot be claimed after the R. 151 RoP time limit. Costs of reviewing the opponent's press release and of a third-party file-access request are not costs of representation in the infringement proceedings, while advice on a possible own appeal or cross-appeal given while the appeal period runs belongs to first-instance representation. A fee discount granted by the representatives reduces the recoverable costs and does not offset non-recoverable items, and the costs of preparing the cost application are not recoverable following Hanshow v VusionGroup.
