The Court of Appeal has reserved its ruling on the appeal by a former Cepep contractor against the High Court’s order to stay its lawsuit over the termination of over 300 contracts by the Cepep Company soon after the April 28 general election.

After hearing arguments from both sides on October 31, Justices of Appeal Peter Rajkumar, James Aboud, and Ricky Rahim reserved.

The appeal centres on whether the High Court should have stayed Eastman Enterprises Ltd's lawsuit against the Cepep Company Ltd because of an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) clause in its contract.
