IANAL (I am not a lawyer) but...

.... I think the injunction the lawyer is threatening you with, will not
be enforcable since you already changed the picture on your website. As
far as I know, "einstweilige Verfügungen" (injunctions) are used to
set an immediate but temporary stop to an activity. I can't see how
this is applicable in your case.

.... I believe that only commercial sites need to have an impressum. I
am bot even sure if this is European law, in my mind this is just a
German thing.

.... I do not believe that the LLC team is constituting a GbR (manily
due to its non-commercial mission). This link seems to support that:

Anyhow, how can German law can be used to prosecute an Internet
activity is beyond my understanding, but a sad fact nevertheless...

.... CDZ's case seems to be weakened since the picture in question was
indeed freely available on his site. However, you unknowingly violated
the license agreement by not stating the copyright on the LLC site. My
advise would be to get a German lawyer. The Glider community is a large
on, there clearly should be a kind fellow among the lawyer faction who
can help out..?

.......

As a sideliner, I am very troubled to say that I unfortunately already
ordered and received this year's "Fotokalender Segelflug"... As a
redemption I will transfer the same amount of money to your PayPal
account. The tone in CDZ's letters is irritatingly arrogant. This man
clearly has to be made aware of certain courtesy standards and limits.

I wish you all the best for your case!

We tried to settle this with cdz in a friendly way. Didn't work. We are
now facing a higher threat and going to court.
Where will this lead to? Going to prison?
