- 2026-03-27Withdrawal (RoP265)Public
Summary: The claimant Nokia Technologies Oy withdrew its infringement action before completion of the written procedure, with the consent of all respondents. No costs order was made as both parties declared they would not seek costs. The court ordered a 60% refund of court fees paid by the claimant (EUR 18,600) pursuant to R. 370.9(b)(i) RoP (in the version valid until 31 December 2025), as the action was filed before that date.
