    Judgment of the Paris Court of Appeal, Pôle 1 - Chamber 1 in case 16/22720 dated 3 October 2017

    Paris Court of Appeal, Pôle 1 - Chamber 1

    Case no.
    16/22720
    Decision summary
    The Paris Court of Appeal declared the Paris Commercial Court incompetent to hear CM-CIC Factor's subrogated claims against Coty Geneva SA Versoix and Coty US LLC. It held that the international arbitration clause in the 2011 supply agreement and 2012 renewal agreement was not manifestly inapplicable to IRG France and the Coty entities, rejected Coty's request for production of the factoring agreement, and ordered CM-CIC Factor to pay Coty EUR 2,000 each under Article 700 of the French Code of Civil Procedure and the appeal costs.
