Judgment of the French Court of Cassation concerning Société cotonnière du Tchad COTONTCHAD and Société SOPARFITEX
French Court of Cassation
- Decision summary
- The French Court of Cassation quashed the Rouen Court of Appeal judgment of 16 December 1975, which had annulled the arbitral award and admitted the appeal in reformation. It held that the appellate court lacked legal basis when it treated the waiver of appeal as necessarily preceding the dispute and required a separate compromis despite the arbitration clause and the measures taken to implement it, and remanded the case to the Caen Court of Appeal.
