Now since the Federal Court of Justice of Germany ruled on two of the cases, one we lost and one we partially won, there are still few at the border of the "BGH" (Federal Court of Justice of Germany).
Meanwhile Blizzard send out lawsuits to the UK and the US. The US one is still ongoing and we arefighting with a motion to dismiss and will appeal that it was declined.
The UK is another story, to tell later on.
Here we simply sum up the victories we had so far.
On 4th September 2013 we introduced the DE Version of Honorbuddy, a week earlier Blizzard paid 670.000,00 EUR to the court of Hamburg to make a judgement temporary enforceable at law. We modified the German Version the way, that it excluded all the functions that where forbidden by the court of Hamburg and could resist the ban of Honorbuddy in Germany.
On 7th May 2015 Blizzard Entertainment S.A.S. withdraws the application for an injunction at the court of appeal that was an attempt to ban sale of "Gold" for Diablo III.
On 23th February 2016 Dresden Higher Regional Court announced the verdict, the Stormbuddy lawsuit was rejected at all points.
