Summary: Court of Appeal order on court fees in NVIDIA's conditional appeal against the Munich LD revocation-counterclaim decision (UPC_CFI_210/2025), filed first by mistake under UPC-CoA-55/2026 and then under UPC-CoA-140/2026: the fee due is EUR 27,720 (the first-instance counterclaim fee for a EUR 1.5m infringement value, plus 10%), so the Registry is to refund NVIDIA EUR 2,940 overpaid on the appeal and EUR 460 paid twice for the R. 320 re-establishment application.
