Summary
In a judgment issued by Justice Fritz Brand on October 16, 2025, the Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court dismissed an application for lack of jurisdiction. The case involved a law firm (the Applicant) seeking an interim order against a corporate entity (the Respondent) related to an arbitration award between another company (the Defendant) and the Respondent. The Applicant's main claim is for legal fees based on an engagement agreement, which was terminated by the Defendant. The Court found that it lacked jurisdiction as the Respondent was not a party to the original contract or dispute within the Qatar Financial Centre.
