The requirement of several hundred million euros related to the writer of earlier activities together within the company. Read the full story in new SPIEGEL

The doctorate in mechanical engineering 1996 had taken over the management of the Transmission Development of the Volkswagen brand and ensured that a new technology was made ready for use. The dual clutch transmission (DSG). The carmaker has registered several patents for this transmission. Wolfgang Schreiber is called in some patents as the “inventor”.

After the laws on employee inventions, the inventor is sufficiently remunerated solely by the content, which it relates. He is entitled to a “reasonable” remuneration. There are often conflicts between employees and companies, what is “reasonable”.

Surely ago Schreiber in time as an employee at VW absorbed. signed a lease basis and contracts related to his inventions. They are typically created with the active support of specialized lawyers and / or legal scholars for the employer and reward with rather ridiculous sums, which afterwards really brings money. It will be really exciting to see now whether these concoctions not absorbed against. Good manners offend. Only then he might have a chance to see significantly more than he has already received.

If we’re at it to do with VW in the world of money, why not without nitrogen oxide. More strikes me this is not one.

If we’re at it, make money with VW in the world, why not without nitrogen oxide. More strikes me not to attend.
