Cooper Tire and Rubber Company Europe Ltd and Others v Dow Deutschland Inc and Others: CA 23 Jul 2010

‘ (1) whether the English court has jurisdiction pursuant to Article 6(1) of EC Council Regulation 44/2001 to determine claims made by the victims of illegal cartel arrangements found by the European Commission to have been made by the Defendants and (2) whether, if so, the proceedings should be stayed pursuant to Article 28 of that Regulation (which we shall call ‘the Judgments Regulation’) because the proceedings are related to proceedings brought elsewhere within the EU. There is also a cross-appeal raising a distinct point about a stay.’
