The Court of Appeal has rejected an application by a Kenyan firm to block the referral of a breach of contract case against Nokia Corporation to the International Court of Arbitration (ICC).
A three-judge bench ruled that Technoservice Limited and Nokia Corporation chose the forum and method of resolving disputes that could arise when they signed the agreement in 2009. Further, Justice Daniel Musinga, Sankale ole Kantai, and Mumbi Ngugi said the parties were bound by their agreement.
