API access

The CMS has Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) which allow a user’s own software to interact directly with the CMS to manage Opt-Outs, or to retrieve information.

There are two categories of APIs:

Application To Application (A2A): where the user’s program creates entries in the CMS database
Public API: where the user’s program can retrieve information from the CMS database regarding their cases, patents and related documents

Appeal RoP220.1

The Statement of Appeal must be lodged within the two months of service of either a final decision of the Court of First Instance or any decisions terminating one party’s proceedings (RoP220 (a) or (b)) pursuant to RoP 224(a).

The judge may invite the party to comment with a decision being issued within 3 weeks of receipt of the Statement of Appeal by the Registry and appeals against separate decisions relating to infringement and validity may be heard at the same time.

Note that this appeal scenario is based on the language of proceedings at the Court of First Instance being selected and preliminary examination resulting in the Statement of grounds of appeal complying with RoP226.
