Exchange of further written pleadings partially allowed. (Rule 36 RoP). 

 

Claimant allowed to submit EPO’s preliminary opinion and a summary of the EPO’s reasoning until 21 November 2025. 

 

Submission of second test purchase rejected. 

The claimant does not sufficiently explain why the submission could not have been made earlier in the reply to the statement of defence filed on 16 December 2024 , as the test purchase was conducted in October 2024.  

The submission does not introduce any genuinely new subject matter.
