Expected timeline for unitary patent and unified patent court
I noticed that recently a progress report on the implementing of the unitary patent and unified patent court has been filed with the Council of the European Union.
The document contains quite a number of expected dates for various milestones. I've created a rudimentary timeline by listing these dates in order.
Both the EPO and the UPC have set up a committee to prepare these institutes: the Preparatory Committee for the unified patent court and the Select Committee for EPO. I've also included a few dates from the updated timeline of the Select Committee. These documents seem to agree well with each other.
This timeline does not include the ratifications of the member states, which are of course a requirement for the system to become operational.
