Our lawyers Dr. Annekathrin Schmoll (Frankfurt), Dr. Nikita Malevanny (Munich), and Dr. Vanessa Ludwig (Frankfurt) examine a pivotal decision by the Higher Regional Court of Düsseldorf (Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf ) in their LexisNexis article, “Anti-suit injunctions 2.0 – need for a new approach in Germany?” The court’s decision, which confirms the previous position of German courts on these procedural instruments, is particularly relevant due to its references to Russia. In her post below, Annekathrin provides some of the key takeaways from the article.
📚 Anti-suit injunctions 2.0 - need for a new approach in Germany? Dr. Vanessa Ludwig, Dr. Nikita Malevanny and I are thrilled to share our latest publication with LexisNexis examining a pivotal decision by the Higher Regional Court of Düsseldorf (Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf ). In its June 17, 2024 ruling, the Court dismissed an appeal challenging a lower court’s refusal to issue an “anti-anti-suit injunction.” This injunction was sought to prevent the enforcement of a St. Petersburg Arbitration Court decision, which ruled in favor of the Respondent, imposing an anti-suit injunction and a potential fine for non-compliance, aimed at stopping the ongoing #arbitration in Sweden. Key Takeaways: 👉The #Court ruled that filing an anti-suit injunction in Russia does not inherently constitute a tortious act. 👉The decision reinforced that such injunctions do not infringe on the right to access German courts, as the prohibition was directed at arbitration proceedings „outside“ Germany. 👉The violation of the arbitration agreement was not deemed morally indecent since the anti-suit injunction is a recognized remedy under Russian law. The Court rejected a claim under Section 826 BGB, stating that merely failing to comply with a contractual obligation by suing in Russia was not immoral. Further circumstances constituting moral indecency did not exist since the Russian decision was based on existing laws to protect Russian companies. 👆For practical implications of this case, please read the full article - particularly relevant due to its references to Russia and considering the EU’s recent 14th package of #sanctions (Regulation (EU) 2024/1745 of June 24, 2024); link in the comments below. #Arbitration #LexisNexis #LegalInsight #EURegulations #AntiSuitInjunction #Enforcement
