Moncrief Oil International: Considers lodging an appeal in BASF
hearing
Fort Worth, Frankenthal/Pfalz (Germany), 31 May 2007 Over the next
view weeks, Moncrief Oil International will examine in detail the
judge's comments in today's oral hearing before Frankenthal (Pfalz)
District Court and will comment in a further written statement before
this court in due time before the ruling on 5 July 2005.
Moncrief Oil International welcomes the decision of the presiding
judge to explicitly recognise its jurisdiction and the application of
German Law in this case, as well as the judge's comment that the
claim is not barred by the statute of limitations.
If Moncrief Oil International fails to eliminate the doubts expressed
by the court as to BASF being in violation of competition law, the
family-owned business from Fort Worth, Texas is considering lodging
an appeal before the competent higher regional court.
Furthermore, against the backdrop of today's findings, Moncrief Oil
International cannot exclude the possibility of bringing the claim
before a Russian Court.
