JURE SUMMARY
JURE SUMMARY
The plaintiff, an Irish company with an office in the Netherlands, claims the repayment of an unduly paid amount based on an invalid subrogation of a contractual claim to the defendant resulting from a transport agreement between the plaintiff and a third party.
The Rechtbank Utrecht (NL) states that as the plaintiff is a company incorporated under foreign law and the claim therefore bears an international character, the jurisdiction of the court is to be assessed to hear the claim. The court assumes jurisdiction based on Article 2 Brussels I Regulation because the defendant is domiciled in the Netherlands.
