Court rules that state’s claim against French company justified
A court of first instance reasonably accepted the Energy Ministry’s claim for 240 million euro compensation from the French energy group Veolia for the damage it caused to the state and consumers, the Supreme Court of Lithuania has ruled in its final and biding ruling. Stating that there was no legal basis, the Supreme Court on Monday refused to accept the cassation appeal of Veolia, Vilniaus Energija and Litesko as they sought to review the 13th of July ruling of the Lithuanian Court of Appeal, which deemed the acceptance and consideration of the state’s claim to be lawful. Veolia, Vilniaus Energija and Litesko tried to prove that the regional court had violated the Lithuanian Law on Investments, misinterpreted other legislation and fundamental legal principles. Lithuania seeks to prove that Veolia and Icor unlawfully obtained lease contracts for heating businesses in ten municipalities in the country between 1999 and 2003 and unlawfully profited from heat consumers.
