    Etablissements Croullet Céréales v Etablissements Michel X... et fils

    French Court of Cassation, Second Civil Chamber

    Decision summary
    The Court of Cassation rejected the appeal in cassation. It held that the arbitral tribunal had not exceeded the terms of the claim by ordering Croullet to cover the amount that Michel X... et fils might have to pay or had paid to Frahuil, and that the award's valuation of the obligation in Deutsche marks, with payment in French currency at the exchange rate on the payment date, did not violate the public-order rule of legal tender.
