England and Wales Reform Patents County Court and Put Caps on Costs For Patentholders

By Andis Kaulins

ADVERTISEMENTS


As reported in various sources, new rules went into effect for England and Wales on 1 October 2010 via a reform of the Patents County Court "through amendments to Parts 63 and 45 of the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) and corresponding Practice Directions", to be known in the future as the IPCC, "Intellectual Property County Court".

The citation is from Bristows, which gives a detailed presentation of the changes.

The cap on costs may have an enabling effect on litigation.
