RKKW Kwasnicki, Wrobel & Partners successfully represented Emperia Holding SA in proceedings initiated by minority shareholder Eurocash contesting a resolution relating to the change of one of the provisions of its articles of incorporation.

According to RKKW, although the first instance court issued a decision unfavorable to Emperia Holding, the Court of Appeals in Warsaw amended that ruling, "in accordance with the complaint submitted by RKKW on behalf of Emperia Holding SA."

RKKW Partner Lukasz Sieczka commented, “The proxy of Emperia Holding SA draws attention to the complexity of the case, also in the light of issues regarding the takeover of control over public companies. It is also significant in the case that Eurocash, appealing against the resolution, acts and intends to develop its activity in the same market on which Emperia operates.”

The RKKW team consisted of Partners Radoslaw Kwasnicki, Lukasz Sieczka, and Dariusz Kulgawczuk, and Senior Associate Agnieszka Nalazek.
