To journalists reporting about the AZ case in which, apparently, interim measures were delivered (thread)
I have now seen reports that AZ won (based on an AZ press release) and that the Commission won (based on their press release). How do you know?
First: establish where we are in the proceedings. Is it done? Or an interim measure? Then: look what the two parties asked for. And what was granted.
You have to deliver x doses can be a victory (if C asked for x doses and A wanted 0) or a loss (if C asked for 100 times x and A conceded x from the start). But it is more complicated, sadly
Because reality and strategy cree in. You might ask for more than you feel you realistically should get. You might try to have a suit thrown out even though you don‘t believe 100% in that argument. You might concede for pr reasons etc etc
Right now the judgment does not seem publicly available. Without that - we cannot tell, as both sides seem to claim victory, sort of.
My guess is that this is not one-sided, but nuanced...
So: wait for the judgment.
One of the things to watch out for: was there a breach of contract or not.
