The Respondent has emphasised that the French Supreme Court does not rule on the facts, but limits itself to the question whether “sufficient reasoning” has been given, and that reasons are “free from contradiction”, and that “the Court of Appeal had justified its decision without incurring the alleged prejudice”. This is reflected in the description (§32 above). I accept it. It was also the position in A and in Doga. It means the focus is on what was said by the Paris Court of Appeal (§31 above). The Supreme Court’s decision is significant for the appellate court’s decision whose legitimacy it reviewed and upheld.
