Amycel LLC v. Applicant - Suspensive Effect Denied

The Unified Patent Court of Appeal issued an order on January 16, 2026, dismissing the Applicant's request for suspensive effect against The Hague Local Division's decision. Amycel LLC had previously succeeded in obtaining provisional measures and an interim award of damages (€50,000) for the infringement of patent EP 1 993 350. The Applicant argued parts of the decision were irreversible, such as sending registered letters and website publication, and that paying interim damages would have serious business consequences. However, the Court found no exceptional circumstances justifying a suspension of the decision, and the application for suspensive effect was rejected.
