Cobalt has successfully represented the European Commission in a dispute with the Republic of Estonia in the Court of Justice of the European Union regarding the amount to be charged for surplus sugar stocks.

The Republic of Estonia appealed a March 24, 2017 decision of the General Court. The CJEU dismissed the appeal, finding that the General Court provide sufficient reasoning for its conclusion that the Republic of Estonia’s request that the Commission change its decision on sugar stocks did not include new facts and thus was properly rejected.

Cobalt Senior Associate Liina Naaber-Kivisoo led the firm's team.
