    Judgment of the Paris Court of Appeal, International Commercial Chamber, Division 5 - Chamber 16 dated 28 March 2023 (RG 22/08053)

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

    Decision summary
    The Paris Court of Appeal rejected ETAC's application to annul the 7 March 2022 ICC award arising from the parties' contract for a cable-car ticketing system in Algeria. It held that the alleged failure to complete the contract's prior amicable-settlement step concerned the admissibility of the claims, not the arbitral tribunal's jurisdiction, and therefore did not establish an annulment ground. ETAC was ordered to pay Skidata EUR 15,000 under article 700 of the French Code of Civil Procedure and the costs.
