“On 23 August 2021 the Court of Chancery (Judge Slights) denied the defendants' motion to dismiss Privatbank's case against its former owners, which alleged that the case must be considered by the courts of Ukraine (forum non conveniens),” reads the press release seen by Ukrinform.

According to the decision, the Court of Chancery will continue consideration of the case pursuant to the civil claim of JSC CB Privatbank against Ihor Kolomoisky, Gennadiy Bogoliubov, and other legal entities and individuals, concerning the compensation of damages caused by the defendants to the Bank prior to its nationalization in December 2016.

Also, the court granted Privatbank's motion and entered a status quo order, prohibiting any actions outside the ordinary course of business with various assets of the defendants in the U.S.

This order, in the words of the court, is “warranted to provide Plaintiff proper security for the more than $600 million in damages it seeks in this action.”
