Procedural order of the Munich Local Division on applications by Volkswagen, Audi and Texas Instruments for security for costs against Network System Technologies LLC (a US NPE claimant), in infringement proceedings concerning an integrated circuit patent. The applicants requested EUR 200,000 security per defendant. The Court considered the right to an effective remedy as a relevant factor, noting security for costs can restrict access to justice under Art. 47 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
