Questione giuridica chiave
Whether Edipresse Publications SA and Ringier SA had passive standing under unfair competition law
Decisione estratta
They did not have passive standing because they did not participate in editing or distributing the offending publications, despite being shareholders in media groups.
Motivazione estratta
Passive standing requires that the defendant has caused or threatens the unfair market harm; mere shareholding in the publishing chain is insufficient.
