In January 2019, Reif was convicted in one of the three injunctions previously brought up against Reif by the Association of Social Competition ("Verband Sozialer Wettbewerb") at the Karlsruhe Regional Court on the accusation of surreptitious advertising. The Karlsruhe Higher Regional Court confirmed the judgment in September 2020. The judgment was put on hold as a revision petition was filed to the Federal Court of Justice (BGH) which was admitted. The Association of Social Competition later withdrew the lawsuit before the Federal Court of Justice in January 2022 after a fundamental decision of the Federal Court in September 2021 in the trial against influencers Cathy Hummels, Leonie Hanne and Luisa- Maxime Huss was decided on the labeling of advertising in favor of influencers. The association bore the costs of the legal dispute against Reif. == Publications ==
