"UCP Tries to Change the Channel with ‘Drug Jails’ Announcement
Alberta announces two 150-bed centres where people will be held against their will for treatment."

"In 2025, watching the history unfolding south of the Canada-U.S. border, can we be confident that drug “treatment” will never be abused in Alberta as psychiatry was used to remove dissidents who openly contradicted official dogma from Soviet society during the years Leonid Brezhnev was leader? That could never happen here. Right?"

I can’t even. I can’t accept that it was just ignorance that led to this unacceptable and offensive act towards a vulnerable elder.

“Alberta Health Services says it has taken a number of steps to better train staff, after a Pasqua First Nation man's braids were cut off and thrown away while he was in an Edmonton hospital.”

Here’s the Canadian Press story via CBC.

This ruling, explicitly about lawyers, seems equally to apply to patent attorneys acting as European Patent Litigators. It imposes strict standards on "independence" drawing on CJEU practice, but is out of step with much national practice. It concludes that in house lawyers cannot represent their employer at the UPC so that parties must be represented by external lawyers. I wonder if it will be upheld on appeal.

The UPC Court of Appeal has unsurprisingly confirmed a rejection of a jurisdictional challenge by the Mannheim local division. A reasonable nexus of damage occurring within the jurisdiction is all that is required. It makes little difference that the infringement is indirect.

We don't often see patents about cold chain monitoring being litigated in our courts, so this revocation action at the UPC was interesting. A few procedural points have already emerged from this case, but this is the final first instance decision. Patent maintained with slight amendment.

UPC confirms that opt out must name all owners of a European patent, or is ineffective. In this case meaning that a revocation action can proceed. It has always been a concern that a patentee will discover that their opt out was defective only when it is too late.

A subtle but important point - while the UPC has ordered language change into English in several cases, that is possible only when the patent was granted in English. Where as in this case the patent was granted in German, there is no legal basis for change of the language of proceedings into English.
