Could you provide more info? On what grounds?
IIRC it was one lower court case in Germany... That's so many asterisk attached as to be meaningless, even if that judgement isn't struck down or amended (unlikely), that still only applies to Germany (or was it one state within Germany?).
The way the EU works is that it mandates each sovereign country to implement the mandate into their national laws, so jurisprudence in Germany doesn't mean anything at all anywhere else.
Also, courts in Europe can't make laws like in the US. Their rulings aren't considered to be law.
How is that relevant? Just because some foreign entity has different laws doesn't mean you cannot have yours. We shouldn't always repeat us policy as gospel. Just look at their social policy nightmare.
