    French Court of Cassation, Second Civil Chamber

    Case no.
    G 19-10.801
    Decision summary
    The Court of Cassation rejected F... D...'s appeal and upheld the lifting of the attachment served on Standard Chartered Bank. A French attachment of claims could not produce effects where the debtor's accounts were held by the bank's New York branch and the French branch did not hold an account for the debtor; the Court also rejected the application for costs against the respondents and ordered F... D... to pay EUR 3,000 to each respondent under Article 700 of the French Code of Civil Procedure.
