In order to assess whether or not a claimed invention lacks inventive step, it is first necessary to determine one or more realistic starting points in the state of the art, which would be of interest to a person skilled in the art who, at the priority date of the patent in suit, was seeking to develop a product or process similar to that disclosed in the prior art. In particular, realistic starting points are the documents which disclose the main relevant features as those disclosed in the challenged patent or which address the same or a similar underlying problem. |

GERMAN - Die Zuständigkeit des Gerichts (oder Jurisdiktion) besteht auch für eine selbständige Klage auf Festsetzung von Schadenersatz, nachdem ein Gericht eines Vertragsmitgliedstaates die Verletzung eines europäischen Patents und eine Verpflichtung des Verletzers dem Grunde nach zur Zahlung von Schadenersatz festgestellt hat. - Die Zuständigkeit des Gerichts erfasst auch Verletzungshandlungen, die vor dem Inkrafttreten des EPGÜ am 1. Juni 2023 begangen wurden, solange das geltend gemachte europäische Patent zu diesem Zeitpunkt noch nicht erloschen ist. ENGLISH - The Court’s competence (or jurisdiction) includes a separate action for determination of damages after a court of a Contracting Member State has established the existence of an infringement of a European patent and an obligation in principle for the infringer to pay damages. - The Court has jurisdiction to decide on acts of infringement committed before the entry into force of the UPCA on 1 June 2023, as long as the European patent invoked has not yet lapsed at that date. |

Da es sich nicht um eine Maßnahme der Verfahrensleitung nach Regeln 331 ff VerfO handelt, sondern um eine Sachentscheidung in originärer Kompetenz des Berichterstatters nach Regel 156.2 VerfO, ist der Berichterstatter auch für die Zulassung der Rücknahme originär und allein zuständig. |
