Guide to the Patents County Court now available

The keenly-awaited Guide to the Patents County Court, which will help litigants make the most of their opportunity to litigate before England and Wales's revamped bargain basement litigation forum, has now been approved by the Chancellor and carries an updated list of web addresses and court fees.

The Guide has not yet been posted on the Patents County Court's web page, but the Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys has kindly hosted the full text here. The document is a 26-side pdf. It is -- considering its content -- pleasantly readable and contains lots of useful things like telephone numbers and details of pro bono support.
