anticipatory brief


Explanation:
Die Schutzschrift ist ein vorbeugendes Verteidigungsmittel gegen den zu erwartenden Antrag auf Erlaß einer einstweiligen Verfügung in einem wettbewerbsrechtlichen Verfahren. Befürchtet ein Unternehmer, daß ein Konkurrent ihm ein bestimmtes Verhalten gerichtlich verbieten lassen möchte oder hat er gar bereits eine Abmahnung erhalten und will auf diese aber nicht entsprechend reagieren, so kann er sich mit einer Schutzschrift verteidigen.

The opponent can increase the probability that a date for an oral hearing is scheduled by way of filing an anticipatory brief (Schutzschrift) in the court with which the application for injunction will probably be filed specifying the reasons.

Reference: protective letter

Reference information:
A Protective letter is in its essence a statement of reasons why an application for provisional measure(s) should be rejected. Hence, lodging a Protective letter is relevant, if you consider it likely that your business will be met with an application for an ex parte provisional measure.

The possibility of filing a Protective letter to the UPC follows from Rule 207 of the UPC Rules of Procedure. Pursuant to this rule, any natural or legal person who considers it likely that in the near future an application for provisional measures will be lodged against him as a defendant, may file a Protective letter.

Where an application for exparte provisional measure(s) is in fact lodged, the Protective letter will be presented to the judge(s) handling the application. The judge(s) will be obligated to consider the Protective letter in determining, if the application can be processed and the case continue without informing the defendant. In this regard, it is worth noticing that a copy of the Protective letter will be forwarded to the applicant.

Consequently, Protective letters provide potential defendants with the chance of defence in cases where provisional measures are pursued ex parte. Compared to the nature of ex parte decisions, where the defendants’ fundamental right to be heard is basically neglected, Protective letters provide defendants with a right of defence, although limited, in ex parte cases.
