German Tech Holding wins legal dispute against SGT Capital LLC

German Tech Holding (GTH) has achieved a legal victory against SGT Capital LLC (SGTLLC) and its partner, Marianne Rajic, at the Higher Regional Court (OLG) Frankfurt am Main.

The dispute arose after SGTLLC and Rajic obtained an injunction against a GTH press release. The injunction claimed that GTH's statements implied Rajic was responsible for an anonymous email smear campaign involving baseless allegations against a GTH official. During a recent oral hearing, SGTLLC and Rajic withdrew their original application, rendering the injunction ineffective.

This follows a previous ruling by the OLG which suggested that Rajic was procedurally responsible for the dissemination of the defamatory emails. This latest development marks the fourth successful legal proceeding for GTH out of five previous injunction applications filed by SGTLLC.
