generally have the purpose of protecting the party benefiting from the agreement from the often very considerable costs of a legal dispute in a foreign country.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Unfortunately, however, it is not uncommon for the other contracting party to suddenly no longer want to know about the jurisdiction agreement in the event of a dispute. The background to such a dishonest approach is &#8211; obviously &#8211; not least the potential for blackmail associated with such an approach. This is because the party that finds itself &#8211; in breach of the jurisdiction agreement &#8211; exposed to a foreign lawsuit is regularly forced to take action abroad through lawyers in order to avoid legal disadvantages. This in turn is often very expensive, with the USA being the most prominent example.   <\/p><p> <\/p><p>The BGH has &#8220;jumped to the side&#8221; of German victims in a very significant judgment, still unknown to many, and has ruled in their favor that the breach of an exclusive jurisdiction agreement generally obliges them to pay damages. The judgment concerns a German-American case, but in the author&#8217;s opinion appears to be transferable to other third country constellations. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-76f1485d elementor-hidden-phone\" data-id=\"76f1485d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7a7c7a26 elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"7a7c7a26\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;zoomIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-450e3c0a\" data-id=\"450e3c0a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2aa80c7c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2aa80c7c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"688\" src=\"https:\/\/www.legal-plus.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/litigation-between-the-countries-of-the-usa-and-israel-for-the-gold-riches-of-their-countries-1030x688.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-7224\" alt=\"Litigation between the countries of the USA and Israel for the gold riches of their countries\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legal-plus.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/litigation-between-the-countries-of-the-usa-and-israel-for-the-gold-riches-of-their-countries-1030x688.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/www.legal-plus.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/litigation-between-the-countries-of-the-usa-and-israel-for-the-gold-riches-of-their-countries-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.legal-plus.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/litigation-between-the-countries-of-the-usa-and-israel-for-the-gold-riches-of-their-countries-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.legal-plus.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/litigation-between-the-countries-of-the-usa-and-israel-for-the-gold-riches-of-their-countries-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.legal-plus.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/litigation-between-the-countries-of-the-usa-and-israel-for-the-gold-riches-of-their-countries-1500x1001.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.legal-plus.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/litigation-between-the-countries-of-the-usa-and-israel-for-the-gold-riches-of-their-countries-705x471.jpg 705w, https:\/\/www.legal-plus.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/litigation-between-the-countries-of-the-usa-and-israel-for-the-gold-riches-of-their-countries.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-609787dc\" data-id=\"609787dc\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5746ce12 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5746ce12\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><strong>BGH ruling from 17.10.2019;

Accordingly, their significance was limited to the establishment and\/or exclusion of a specific court&#8217;s jurisdiction. <\/p><p>However, a further binding effect was rejected, so that actions that violated such an agreement could not trigger a claim for damages in accordance with Section 280 BGB. This was particularly problematic in cases in which actions were brought in countries without a procedural claim for reimbursement of costs in breach of the jurisdiction agreement. For example, according to the &#8220;American Rule of Costs&#8221; in the USA, the reimbursement of legal fees of the winning party is excluded. In view of the notoriously horrendous legal fees in the USA, this is particularly bitter for the party concerned.   <\/p><p>The BGH has now &#8211; very welcome &#8211; moved away from this view.<\/p><h3><u>  No fundamental objections to material legal component<\/u><\/h3><p>According to the earlier case law of the Federal Court of Justice, a jurisdiction agreement is a substantive contract on procedural relationships.<\/p><p>As the BGH rightly states, the parties are free to agree material obligations in a contract in addition to purely procedural obligations.<\/p><p>In this regard, the BGH first states that such an assumption would not raise any concerns with regard to national and European civil procedural law, as the substantive part of the agreement lies outside the scope of application of the Code of Civil Procedure and the Brussels I Regulation.<\/p><p>In third-country cases, this also applies without further ado with regard to the case law of the European Court of Justice on so-called &#8220;anti-suit injunctions&#8221;, as the principle of mutual trust applicable within the EU is not affected. In addition, no contradictions in value are discernible either way if the derogated court, i.e. the court seized in breach of the jurisdiction agreement, has denied its jurisdiction in full knowledge of all relevant circumstances. <\/p><h3><u>  Agreements on the place of jurisdiction can be interpreted as binding under the law of obligations<\/u><\/h3><p>According to the very convincing explanations of the BGH, a content under the law of obligations can be read into a jurisdiction agreement by way of interpretation.<\/p><blockquote><p>In this regard, the BGH first states that a jurisdiction agreement <em>&#8220;according to its objective content and typical meaning, taking into account the interests of the parties involved, <\/em>must be understood <em>by an honest and reasonable contractual partner&#8221; <\/em>to mean that the obligation under the law of obligations sanctioned in accordance with Section 280 (1) BGB has been entered into not to sue at a place of jurisdiction other than that agreed. <\/p><\/blockquote><p>The following passage of the judgment is worth quoting, in which the BGH deals with the typical interests of the parties (para. 37 of the judgment):<\/p><blockquote><p><strong><em>&#8220;The agreement of the law applicable to the contract and a place of jurisdiction expresses the interest of both parties in making legal disputes predictable in terms of both substantive and procedural law. The contracting parties involved in international legal transactions in particular want to create legal certainty and make &#8211; also economic &#8211; litigation risks predictable (Eichel loc. cit. p. 224). By stipulating a specific place of jurisdiction, they aim to select a specific place of jurisdiction and, in particular, to prevent subsequent forum shopping by a contracting party.&#8221;<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><h3><u>  Vulnerability of the party concerned  <\/u><\/h3><p>This typical interest, which is worthy of protection, also includes avoiding unnecessary costs for appealing to a court without jurisdiction. The protective purpose of such an agreement can only be achieved if it is thwarted by recourse to a court in breach of the agreement by granting the party thereby burdened a claim for reimbursement of costs. <\/p><p>According to the purposes of the above-mentioned principles, there is no reason to protect a party who brings an action before a foreign court in breach of the agreement on domestic jurisdiction from the substantive legal cost consequences that it would have to bear under procedural law in the event of a purely domestic case &#8211; irrespective of the illegality of its action.<\/p><p>The described need for protection of exclusive jurisdiction agreements is also confirmed by Art. 31 (2) and (3) of the Brussels I Regulation, whereby the scope of application of this provision is only limited and its protection is also insufficient with regard to the cost consequences of invoking a court without jurisdiction. <\/p><h3><u>  Conclusion of the BGH<\/u><\/h3><p>After all, the BGH considers an action that deviates from the agreed international place of jurisdiction to be a breach of duty obliging the claimant to pay damages, at least if it is a third country case (non-EU) and the third country does not provide for a sufficient claim for reimbursement.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

in US cases.<\/p><p>At least in the case of contracts with partners from non-EU countries, in the event of a breach of the exclusive jurisdiction agreement, it is advisable to examine the claim for damages affirmed by the BGH with regard to the costs that a legal defense in the third country has triggered and the reimbursement of which is not covered by local procedural law.<\/p><p>However, in the author&#8217;s opinion, a claim for damages under substantive law also appears possible in purely EU-related cases on the basis of the BGH ruling discussed above.<\/p><p>An action brought in breach of an exclusive jurisdiction agreement forces the party benefiting from the jurisdiction agreement, in breach of contract, to deal with the contractual partner in a foreign jurisdiction at &#8211; at least from a German perspective &#8211; often significantly higher costs. In such cases, the claim for reimbursement of costs awarded by the court seized in breach of contract will often not be sufficient to cover the costs incurred for the legal defense &#8220;in a foreign jurisdiction&#8221;. As the BGH itself rightly noted, the EU legislator also sees a special need for protection of the party benefiting from an exclusive jurisdiction agreement. However, the provision of Art. 31 (2) of the EU Regulation based on this is not sufficient on its own, as it helps to &#8220;stop&#8221; an inadmissible action, but does not guarantee that the party concerned will actually be reimbursed for all costs.    <\/p><p>You can read more about the options for defending yourself against actions brought in breach of an exclusive jurisdiction agreement <a

This is because the party that finds itself &#8211; in breach of the jurisdiction agreement &#8211; exposed to a foreign lawsuit is regularly forced to take action abroad through lawyers in order to avoid legal disadvantages.

agreements on jurisdiction, especially if they are to have exclusive validity, generally have the purpose of protecting the party benefiting from the agreement from the often very considerable costs of a legal dispute in a foreign country.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, however, it is not uncommon for the other contracting party to suddenly no longer want to know about the jurisdiction agreement in the event of a dispute. The background to such a dishonest approach is &#8211; obviously &#8211; not least the potential for blackmail associated with such an approach. This is because the party that finds itself &#8211; in breach of the jurisdiction agreement &#8211; exposed to a foreign lawsuit is regularly forced to take action abroad through lawyers in order to avoid legal disadvantages. This in turn is often very expensive, with the USA being the most prominent example.     <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8578,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[127,134,135,36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8577","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-commercial-law","category-contract-law","category-international-procedural-law","category-nicht-kategorisiert"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Breach of an international jurisdiction agreement can result in liability for damages! - On the ruling of the BGH from 17.10.2019 (Ref.
