v.
Amazon - UPC-CFI-0000936/2025
landmark
Anti-suit injunction (ASI) against Amazon confirmed with penalty of up to 50M EUR for disobedience and 500K EUR per day of non-compliance. The Mannheim LD upheld its September 2025 order requiring Amazon to refrain from seeking or enforcing anti-enforcement injunctions from non-UPC courts. The court ordered notification to the EU Commission under Council Regulation 1/2003, Art. 6 and 15(2), given the EU antitrust law implications of the dispute. This is a landmark FRAND/SEP procedural decision addressing the interplay between UPC provisional measures and foreign anti-suit injunctions.
