Article 2 of Law Decree No. 100 of 12 June 2026 – which entered into force on the same date, the day of its publication in the Official Gazette – marks the end of the regime whereby “anticipatory” IP interim measures remained effective regardless of whether proceedings on the merits were brought. This change profoundly affects enforcement and defense strategies in IP matters. The Law Decree, which is still pending conversion, implements the conclusions reached by the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union of 23 April 2026 (Case C-132/25).
