Couldn't find an English source, sorry, but I'm sure Google Translate will do the job.
Some notes:
This is the highest regular court (ie. apart from the constitutional court and European courts).
The decision invalidates an earlier decision by a lower court which ruled in favor of Google; that court will now have to review the case and determine whether a specific autocomplete will have to be removed.
For some reason this is a fairly big thing here, with many supposedly important people taking issue with autocomplete suggestions associated with them (which of course causes pranksters to game the system even more, YHBT/YHL/HAND).
Incidentally, bashing Google for all the wrong reasons and none of the right ones is popular here.
Last but not least, Google has to police individual offensive autocomplete suggestions only after being told about them, which I guess makes it at least somewhat feasible. I'm not sure if any changes they make only have to be made on google.de, with the full supposedly defamatory experience remaining available on google.com. I hope so.
