The Federal Supreme Court ruled in the final instance on the revocation
action (reference No.: X ZR 153/04) on the lawsuit which has been pending
for several years concerning the accusation of infringement of the patent
EP 0 602 312 of Baldwin GmbH.

The patent being disputed was upheld although only to a limited extent by
the court. The Federal Supreme Court must now decide whether to permit an
appeal in the infringement proceedings. That decision will determine
whether the currently suspended compensation proceedings will be reopened
by the Düsseldorf district court.
