Podcast: Jurisdiction – Testing the Limits

In our 8th episode, Charlie French and Aida Tohala explore some of the recent decisions from the UPC exploring the boundaries of the court’s jurisdiction. These cases deal with questions including:

• Does the UPC have jurisdiction over countries that have signed the UPC Agreement, but not yet ratified it?
• How to decide whether to stay UPC proceedings when parallel litigation is ongoing at the EPO or nationally?
• Is it only national litigation commenced during the UPC transitional period that can lead to a stay of UPC proceedings?
