Damages for Breach of a Forum Selection Clause
American Business Law Journal ( IF 1.743 ) Pub Date : 2021-07-23 , DOI: 10.1111/ablj.12183
Tanya J. Monestier

When a party breaches a forum selection clause, a court will normally dismiss the action, therefore forcing the breaching party to re-file in the appropriate forum, or the court will transfer the proceedings to the chosen court. Either way, the nonbreaching party appears to have gotten what he wanted: litigation to proceed before the designated court. However, to get there, the nonbreaching party had to outlay significant expenditures in the form of attorneys' fees. Are these attorneys' fees recoverable as damages? Should they be?

违反论坛选择条款的损害赔偿

当一方违反法院选择条款时,法院通常会驳回诉讼,从而迫使违约方在适当的法院重新提起诉讼,或者法院将诉讼转移到选定的法院。无论哪种方式,守约方似乎都得到了他想要的:在指定法院提起诉讼。但是,要达到目标,守约方必须以律师费的形式支付大量支出。这些律师费可以作为损害赔偿吗?他们应该是吗?
