101 C 30/10Court of First InstanceMar 18, 2010Competition lawDismissed
Extracted by Omnilex
The plaintiff sought an injunction over an unsolicited advertising email. The defendant credibly established that the email had been sent through a one-time mistake. The court concluded that this removed the risk of repetition necessary for an injunctive claim and dismissed the action. The plaintiff was ordered to bear the costs of the proceedings. The judgment was declared provisionally enforceable.
BGB §§ 823, 1004; UWG Art. 8; risk of repetition following unsolicited advertising email. A claim for injunctive relief requires a risk that the infringement will recur. Where the sender credibly establishes that an unwanted advertising email resulted from a one-time mistake, the risk of repetition is absent and an injunction is not justified.
