No Management Board Liability at Villeroy & Boch
Dr. Thomas Trölitzsch and Dr. Donata Beck represented former CEO and supervisory board chairman Wendelin von Boch before the Saarbrücken Regional Court against an action brought by Villeroy & Boch AG claiming damages of €70 million against several former management board members due to an EU antitrust fine imposed on the company and several subsidiaries.
The action brought by Villeroy & Boch AG was dismissed by the court: It is the largest case known to date involving the recourse of an EU cartel fine in Germany.
