The Federal Court of Justice, acting on the plaintiffs’ remedies, set aside the regional court judgment and amended the district court judgment by entering a new acknowledgment judgment. The defendant was ordered to pay each plaintiff EUR 400 with statutory default interest from 29 January 2013 and to indemnify them against pre-litigation legal costs of EUR 120.67.
