First Edition of the DIFC Courts Digest Published

We are pleased to announce the publication of the inaugural edition of the DIFC Courts Digest, authored by Josep Gálvez and Arran Dowling-Hussey.

This first edition examines a number of significant decisions of the DIFC Courts concerning worldwide freezing orders and interim relief, including Orabelle, Trafigura, Ovya and VTB Bank. Collectively, these cases explore important issues relating to:

  • The jurisdictional foundations for granting interim relief;

  • The DIFC Courts’ role in supporting foreign court proceedings and arbitration;

  • The implications of non-compliance with disclosure obligations; and

  • The enforcement of orders in complex cross-border disputes.

The digest provides valuable insight into the evolving jurisprudence of the DIFC Courts and their approach to commercial litigation, interim remedies, and international enforcement matters.
