UPC APP 11625/2025

Lisbon Local Division decision granting Ericsson's application to withdraw its infringement action against Digital River Ireland Ltd, one of two defendants in proceedings concerning EP 2 819 131, following Digital River's insolvency (winding-up order of 24 February 2025 by Irish Court). The court found no legitimate interest of Digital River in having the matter decided, held that each party bears its own costs (insolvency was a circumstance outside either party's control), and directed Ericsson to file an amended statement of claim removing Digital River from the main action. The infringement action against AsusTek Computer Inc. continues.
