The Munich Local Division issued a landmark 161-page judgment in Huawei v Netgear finding infringement of Huawei's SEP portfolio patents and granting injunction, recall and destruction orders against Netgear entities across Belgium, Germany, Italy, Finland, France and Sweden, alongside a declaration of liability for damages; counterclaims for revocation were partially successful but did not defeat infringement for all claims.
