Nestl\u00e9 obtained a favorable sentence in an action to refrain from selling coffee capsules compatible with the Nescaf\u00e9 Dolce Gusto machine, against two companies that imported and marketed such capsules in the Brazilian market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Decision by the judge of law Tom Alexandre Brand\u00e3o, of the 2nd Civil Court of the Central Forum of S\u00e3o Paulo, who in granting an injunction in sentence, recognized that Nestl\u00e9 holds patent for the invention of Nescaf\u00e9 Dolce Gusto beverage capsules, as well as registration of industrial designs referring to the configuration (illustration and ornamentation) of the capsules, duly granted by INPI – National Institute of Industrial Property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Industrial property<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The plaintiff claimed that the import and distribution of capsules compatible with the Nescaf\u00e9 Dolce Gusto machine took place without his authorization and in breach of industrial property rights regularly granted by the INPI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In defense, the defendants alleged that the capsules did not improperly reproduce the characteristics described in the claims independent of the author’s patent and that there would also be no reproduction of the ornamental plastic forms protected by the industrial design records in question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the investigation phase, the judicial expert concluded that the defendant’s capsules have the same technical characteristics protected by the patent PI 0306852-8, as well as the same aspects of the industrial design records DI 6401024-4 and DI 6504212-3 authorized by the plaintiff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In analyzing the lawsuit, the magistrate acknowledged that the defendants violated the plaintiff’s immaterial rights. Thus, it granted a preliminary injunction, in order for the defendants to refrain from importing and marketing capsules compatible with machines in the Nescaf\u00e9 Dolce Gusto system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
