Fritz Brand
Summary
In the Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court, Justice Fritz Brand dismissed Joey Chris Battja's claim against Jillion LLC for $11,248.85. Battja, a Dutch citizen residing in Jakarta, based his claim on an employment contract with International Payment Services B.S.C. (IPS), a Bahrain entity. He argued that Jillion LLC, controlled by the same individual as IPS, should be liable. However, the Court ruled that Jillion LLC and IPS are independent entities, and the dispute did not fall under its jurisdiction as it did not involve a QFC entity. The claim was dismissed with no order as to costs.
