A client of Schelstraete Advocaten bought a trailer back in 2013 from a North Irish corporation and resold it to a Macedonian corporation. When the Macedonian buyer wanted to cross the Hungarian-Romanian border the trailer was confiscated now that it was reported stolen at Interpol. The Macedonian buyer held the client liable, which in turn held the North Irish corporation liable from whom the client had bought the trailer from initially.
The Court decided now that the Macedonian buyer did not obtain ownership of the trailer, she may claim a refund from the client of the paid purchase price. Schelstraete’s client has successfully passed this claim onto the North Irish corporation which now has been obligated to refund the purchase price, compensation of the damages and compensation of the court costs.
The client has been represented by Mr. L.M. Schelstraete and Mr. B.E.J. Loeffen
