ENGARDE’s associate, Iryna Shevchuk, successfully represented the interests of a large state-owned energy company in the dispute over the invalidation of a nearly $ 10 million commercial agreement.
The present litigation was complicated by the fact that a decision taken by the Supreme Court in another court case, but with the participation of the same plaintiff, was declared invalid by the same agreement, which, in the plaintiff’s opinion, created a prejudicial fact.
Finally, on October 11, 2019, the Supreme Court, consisting of the Judges of the Joint Chamber of the Commercial Cassation Court, found it necessary to recede the conclusion on the application of the norm of law in such legal relationships and issued a decree to refuse to satisfy the cassation appeal and upheld the judicial decisions made in favor of the defendant.
