    Judgment of the Paris Court of Appeal in case RG 13/09465 dated 18 November 2014

    Paris Court of Appeal

    Case no.
    13/09465
    Decision summary
    The Paris Court of Appeal rejected IMAL's application to set aside the 7 February 2013 ICC arbitral award. It held that the tribunal had not violated the adversarial principle by applying the Swiss-law rules on non-performance and good faith without separately submitting its legal reasoning for comment. IMAL was ordered to pay ARIAN EUR 100,000 under Article 700 of the French Code of Civil Procedure and the costs of the proceedings.
