摘要：
This report highlights a selection of the most important UK patent decisions from 2021, including: one Supreme Court judgment concerning the economic tort of unlawful means, which importantly maintained the status quo for litigating patents in the UK; four Court of Appeal judgments (one concerning sufficiency and functional claiming, which overturned the decision below; two where the first instance finding was upheld; and one considering the crown use exception); and, seven High Court judgments (one giving obiter guidance on the Formstein defence in cases of infringement by equivalents; four relating to applications for expedition of proceedings; and two relating to FRAND and the effect of the ETSI undertaking).
