The Court of Appeal permitted the withdrawal of InterDigital's application for provisional measures against Amazon, with Amazon's consent. Both parties agreed not to seek reimbursement of costs from the other, so no cost decision was issued. The proceedings were declared closed.

The President of the Court of Appeal (Klaus Grabinski, Standing Judge) rejected Amazon's application for suspensive effect regarding the Mannheim Local Division's Anti-Suit Injunction (ASI) order of 22 December 2025, which confirmed an earlier order of 30 September 2025 prohibiting Amazon from pursuing or enforcing anti-suit injunctions against InterDigital's UPC patent enforcement actions. Amazon failed to demonstrate the order was 'manifestly erroneous', which is the threshold for suspensive effect under the UPC's case law.
