Tell me about Telmisartan: latest decision, in German only

From Arno Markgraf comes news of another Telmisartan SPC decision, this one from the German Patent Court.  You can download the decision here.  Unfortunately, at the moment, no English translation is available.

Thanks Arno for passing this on to us!

A short, English-language summary of this decision will follow in due course.

The link to the judgment above leads to the webpage of the BPG, but which decision number should one look at?

Neither of the June decisions appears to be about Telmisartan...

I found this ruling from February 2014: is it the decision (it's in German)?
