Article R411-34 of the French Intellectual Property Code

Subject to the sanctions provided for in Articles R. 411-29, R. 411-30 and R. 411-32, the submissions shall be notified to the parties’ lawyers and sent to the Director General of the National Institute of Industrial Property within the same time limit as that for their delivery to the court registry. Subject to the same sanctions, they shall be served at the latest within one month of the expiry of the time limits provided for in those articles on parties who have not constituted a lawyer; however, if, in the meantime, they have constituted a lawyer before the service of the pleadings, their lawyer shall be served.

The service of pleadings on a party within the time limit provided for in articles R. 411-29, R. 411-30 and R. 411-32 and in the first paragraph shall constitute the starting point of the time limit available to that party for submitting its pleadings to the court registry.

Article R411-34

Sous les sanctions prévues aux articles R. 411-29, R. 411-30 et R. 411-32, les conclusions sont notifiées aux avocats des parties et adressées au directeur général de l’Institut national de la propriété industrielle dans le même délai que celui de leur remise au greffe de la cour. Sous les mêmes sanctions, elles sont signifiées au plus tard dans le mois suivant l’expiration des délais prévus à ces articles aux parties qui n’ont pas constitué avocat ; cependant, si, entre-temps, celles-ci ont constitué avocat avant la signification des conclusions, il est procédé par voie de notification à leur avocat.

La notification de conclusions faite à une partie dans le délai prévu aux articles R. 411-29, R. 411-30 et R. 411-32 ainsi qu’au premier alinéa constitue le point de départ du délai dont cette partie dispose pour remettre ses conclusions au greffe.
