Judgment of the French Court of Cassation, First Civil Chamber dated 21 October 2015
French Court of Cassation, First Civil Chamber
- Decision summary
- The court annulled in its entirety the Paris Court of Appeal judgment of 30 January 2014, without remand. It held that the later OHADA decision setting aside the Bamako judgments removed the legal foundation for the Paris Court of Appeal's ruling; it therefore refused release of the seizures of debts and rejected Canac Railway Services Inc's claims. Transrail, Advens and Abbas X... were condemned in costs, and were ordered to pay Canac Railway Services Inc EUR 3,000 under Article 700 of the French Code of Civil Procedure.
