The purpose of this study, commissioned by the EUIPO is to describe the legal framework for blocking injunctions in the EU and studied Member States and, specifically, forward-looking/dynamic injunctions (including proposed legislation, initiatives and voluntary measures). Additionally, it provides an overview of existing case-law. The study identifies similarities and differences between the practices in various Member States with regard to different aspects of dynamic blocking injunctions such as requirements, balance of rights, scope, implementation, costs and effectiveness.

This study provides an overview of legal principles, case-law and practices applicable to dynamic blocking injunctions in the EU and a selected 12+1 Member States (Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the UK), thus representing Member States of different sizes, geographical regions and legal traditions.

The study is available here.
