The Milan CD standing judge (Postiglione) dismissed a R.97 RoP action by CNRS, Bodycap, and Université de Rennes challenging the EPO's rejection of a unitary effect request for EP 3 691 518. The EPO had rejected the request because the address of the third patent holder did not match the registered address following a university merger, and the correction was submitted four days past the non-extendable one-month deadline under R.7.3 UPR. The court held that R.6.2 UPR requires strict compliance with address data per R.41(2)(c) EPC, that the R.7.3 deadline is absolute with no restitutio in integrum (R.22.6 UPR), and that no interlocutory revision is available for R.97 actions (R.85(2) RoP exception).
