    Q 16-18.178
    Decision summary
    The Court of Cassation rejected Banque Delubac et Cie’s appeal and upheld the ruling that the Paris Commercial Court lacked jurisdiction over the bank’s claim against Saatbau Linz Egen. The invoices arose from sales contracts containing arbitration clauses, and the bank’s tort-based claim was sufficiently connected to those contracts for the clauses not to be manifestly inapplicable. Banque Delubac et Cie was ordered to pay the costs and EUR 3,000 under Article 700 of the French Code of Civil Procedure.
