The Court of Appeal (standing judge) dismissed Curio Bioscience Inc.'s application for suspensive effect (R. 223.4 RoP) of a Düsseldorf Local Division order requiring Curio to provide security for costs of EUR 200,000 in favour of claimant 10x Genomics Inc. The standing judge held that Curio had not established 'extreme urgency' as required under R. 223 RoP, which is a condition for a standing-judge decision without hearing the respondent.
