Top-notch antitrust experts award five stars to preliminary injunction against Google by Munich I Regional Court
The Munich I Regional Court (Landgericht München I) is my subjective Technology Court of the Month (no matter how often I disagreed with it on other issues, which may happen again anytime) as it handed down two key decisions in February that have the potential to make tech law history with repercussions throughout and potentially beyond the European Union:
the 37th Civil Chamber s preliminary antitrust injunction against Google s vertical cooperation with a governmental health portal to the detriment of private-sector health information publishers. I translated most of the 28 pages on the day the decision was announced, and went back a week later to finish it.
