Summary: The Munich Local Division ordered a small company (claimant in infringement proceedings, Snowpixie Co., Ltd.) to provide security for costs under Rule 158 RoP based on its operating losses and insufficient assets. The court reduced the security amount to reflect equity principles ensuring effective access to justice. The court also denied legal aid (Prozesskostenhilfe) to the claimant, finding it had sufficient resources given it was supported by a litigation funder.
