Cartel Damages Claims
The German Regional Court Düsseldorf has
ruled on the 21/02/07 that the follow-on action
for cartel damages filed by the Belgian company
"Cartel Damages Claims" (CDC) is admissible. CDC
is seeking damages of 114M Eur. on behalf of the
victims of the German Cement Cartel. The Court
has ruled that the action of CDC is admissible,
as CDC has acquired the damages rights of the
cartel victims. If CDC succeeds, a new legal
industry might appear based on the profitability
of bringing follow-on actions.
