To mark the back-to-office season, Caroline DUCLERCQ provides a detailed analysis of the latest case law concerning the exercise by the debtor of its right to withdrawal following the assignment of contested claims in an article published in Les Cahiers de l'Arbitrage, 2024-2, p. 477 et seq.
This article focuses on two major decisions rendered on February 28, 2024 in which the French Supreme Court put an end to a 15-year saga by redefining the conditions under which the debtor’s right of withdrawal may be exercised in the context of judicial proceedings against international arbitration awards.
We extend our sincere thanks to Charles Kaplan, Charles Nairac, and Priscille Pedone for their trust.
