In a landmark judgment, the Cyprus Court
ordered the Publisher of a Game to return its Bundle ID
with over 100.000.000 active users in the various
app-stores to its Developer, pending the determination of their
underlying dispute.
The dispute concerned, amongst others, the termination of a
license agreement between the Developer and the Publisher for the
distribution of a Game.
Simultaneously with issuing proceedings, the Developer
successfully secured an interim injunction on an
ex-parte basis, ordering the Publisher to take all
necessary steps for transferring the Game's Bundle ID and User
Database back to the Developer.
At the inter-partes hearing, the Publisher, inter alia, argued
that it was entitled to retain the Game's Bundle ID and claimed
proprietary rights over the Game's User Database.
