    Paris Court of Appeal, International Commercial Chamber, Division 5 Chamber 16

    Case no.

    Decision summary
    The Paris Court of Appeal rejected the parties' pleas of inadmissibility and Banque Delubac's application to set aside the 15 October 2020 merits award. It held that the award's reference to the arbitrators deciding in accordance with their conscience did not confer amiable-compositeur power or require departure from legal rules, rejected the annulment ground based on failure to follow the tribunal's mission, ordered Banque Delubac to pay Feldsaaten Freudenberger EUR 20,000 under article 700 of the French Code of Civil Procedure, and ordered Banque Delubac to pay the costs.
