The UPC continues to provide anti-suit relief in FRAND actions where it considers its jurisdiction may be compromised by the grant of interim licence applications in other Courts. In the UPC, Nokia is pursuing SEP infringement actions against Chinese car manufacturer, Geely. In response Geely initiated rate-setting proceedings in a parallel action before the Hangzhou Court in China and applied for a worldwide “interim licence” by way of a preservation order.
