A regional court has temporarily banned Apple from marketing or supplying iPhones and iPads in Germany (http://www.zdnet.co.uk/blogs/communication-breakdown-10000030/apple-faces-temporary-iphone-ipad-ban-in-germany-10024736/), following a suit brought about by Motorola. However, Apple said that the judgement 'does not affect our ability to do business or sell products in Germany at this time.' This may have something to do with the respondent in the case being Apple Inc, the US parent company, and not Apple GmbH, the company's local subsidiary.

At least this only applies in Germany though, and not across the whole of the EU.
