The 2003 draft agreement provides the creation of a "European Patent Judiciary (EPJ)", comprising:
- a "European Patent Court" competent to decide on infringement relating to patents of EPO member states and including a "European Patent Court of Appeal"; and
- an "Administrative Committee".
The European Patent Judiciary (EPJ) would make current national patent courts obsolete. However, the EPJ may install regional chambers.

Famous quotes containing the word content:
“You can hardly convince a man of an error in a life-time, but must content yourself with the reflection that the progress of science is slow. If he is not convinced, his grandchildren may be. The geologists tell us that it took one hundred years to prove that fossils are organic, and one hundred and fifty more to prove that they are not to be referred to the Noachian deluge.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Our frigate takes fire,
The other asks if we demand quarter?
If our colors are struck and the fighting done?
Now I laugh content for I hear the voice of my little captain,
We have not struck, he composedly cries, we have just begun our part of the fighting.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“How many persons must there be who cannot worship alone since they are content with so little.”
—Margaret Fuller (1810–1850)
