Short overview

AI confidence in this overview: medium

This appeal concerned whether a third party claim under Turkish insurance law is the equivalent of the insured's contractual rights against the insurer (such that an arbitration clause in the insurance contract could be enforced) and whether an anti-suit injunction should be granted to restrain Turkish proceedings. The Court of Appeal dismissed the appellant's appeal, ordered costs and a payment on account, and refused permission to appeal to the Supreme Court.
