KEEEX SAS v. Adobe, OpenAI, and Others

In this case, KEEEX SAS filed a lawsuit for patent infringement against several defendants, including Adobe and OpenAI, concerning their alleged infringement of KEEEX's patent EP2949070. The court issued a procedural order rejecting KEEEX's request to modify the patent and declaring certain attempts to expand the infringement claims inadmissible. The decision was based on procedural rules that restrict changes to the claim after a certain period.

KEEEX sought to have certain new evidence and claims admitted, arguing they were in response to new arguments from the defendants, but the court maintained its original decision. KEEEX's argument for the inclusion of new products in the infringement claim was also rejected as a change of demand, not allowed at this stage.

Overall, the court ruled against KEEEX's attempts to amend its claims and evidence, with the panel's decision aligning with previous jurisprudence on the matter. The defendants, including Adobe and OpenAI, supported the court's initial refusal to admit KEEEX's new submissions.
