French Court of Cassation, Second Civil Chamber
- Decision summary
- The Court of Cassation rejected STCO's appeal from the Versailles Court of Appeal's jurisdiction ruling. It held that the ambiguous jurisdiction clauses did not reserve the dispute exclusively to the Paris Commercial Court, and that STCO's contention that the attachment-validation proceedings belonged in the Tribunal de grande instance was inadmissible because it contradicted its submissions below.
