Following an oral hearing on 16 April 2024 and with a decision date set for September 2024, the parties reached an out-of-court settlement and KraussMaffei withdrew the action in July 2024. The Munich Local Division accepted the withdrawal, declared proceedings closed, and ordered 20% reimbursement of court fees as the oral procedure was not yet formally closed at the time of withdrawal.
