The First Respondent is seeking to enforce the judgment debt and costs orders in the Contract Proceedings against the Applicant, by way of parallel proceedings in Germany.

On 4 August 2022, the Applicant made a criminal complaint of copyright infringement to the Munich Prosecutors relating to the use of the “stop-gap” Rolls-Royce configurator by a German dealer.

There is also litigation started in the Munich Regional Court between the Applicant and its insurer (Hiscox) in relation to the Applicant’s liability in the Contract Proceedings. It would appear the first instance court ruled substantially in favour of the Applicant however both parties have filed notices of appeal and matter remains unresolved.
