In
March, Munich prosecutors searched the offices of Jones Day, a
U.S. law firm hired by Volkswagen to investigate its emissions
scandal, stepping up efforts to identify those involved in
Volkswagen's emissions-test cheating scandal.
Volkswagen, Europe's biggest carmaker, has condemned the search
and filed a legal complaint.
It said on Monday it would now take the matter to Germany's
highest court, the Federal Constitutional Court.
"The Munich regional court's decision in now way gives us reason
to change our legal position," it said in an e-mailed statement.
