Prinoth S.p.A. filed a lawsuit against Xelom s.r.l. seeking an inspection order to protect patents EP2507436 and EP1995159. The court granted the inspection but limited the scope. Prinoth claimed that key evidence was missing from the inspection, which hindered proving infringement, especially related to software and technical documentation.

Xelom filed a counterclaim for the revocation of the patents, arguing their invalidity based on novelty and insufficient description. They also asked to safeguard confidential information if further inspections were allowed and requested that a Court Expert oversee any processes.

The court decided to allow further inspection and experiments related to patent EP159, concluding the need for the investigation outweighed Xelom's objections. A hearing was set to address evidentiary issues and potentially modify patent claims by Prinoth.
