Ballinno ordered to provide security for legal cost of claimant Kinexon in revocation action (Article 69(4) UPCA, R. 158 RoP).
It is not necessary that the party claiming security has the formal position of a defendant in the lawsuit in which it claims security. It only matters whether it reacts to a claim of the other party. Therefore, a party is also defendant in the sense of Art. 69 (4) UPCA if it responds with a revocation action against an application for provisional measures.
Irrevocable commitment to the Claimant in the proceedings not to further pursue its infringement case unless and until the Court of Appeal provisionally rules that the method and system, which Kinexon provided to UEFA infringes a valid EP 067 […] does not alter the risk that a possible cost order against Ballinno might not be recoverable by Kinexon and does not change the fact that Kinexon has costs which arise in reaction to Ballinnos application for provisional measures.
