Order by Düsseldorf Local Division (UPC_CFI_457/2023, 14 May 2024) allowing Dolby International AB's unconditional restriction of its infringement claim under R. 263.3 RoP to exclude HP computers equipped with NVIDIA GPU-based HEVC video decoding. The court characterised the restriction as an unconditional and always-permissible limitation of the claim under R. 263.3 RoP (not merely a clarification), and noted that the defendants' intervention invitation application appeared to have become moot.
