A German client of Schelstraete Lawyers faced litigation initiated by a Dutch dressage stable that claimed payments regarding the stabling and training of a horse that the German client bought from the Dutch dressage stable. Shortly after the delivery the German client brought the horse back to the stable because the horse was not in conformity with the agreement. The Court of Middelburg rejected the claim of the Dutch dressage stable. According to the judge the Dutch dressage stable did not prove that there was an agreement between the parties regarding the stabling and training of the horse.
