Central Santa Lucía against Meliá hoteles case. Reflections about the JPI order no. 24 Palma de Mallorca, May 3, 2021 (to be continued)
Abstract
On June 3, 2019, a lawsuit between Central Santa Lucía, a United States company, was brought before the Spanish courts against Meliá Hoteles, a company domiciled in Spain, for unjust enrichment derived from the act of nationalization carried out by Cuba in 1960. After various resolutions issued in this same case, the JPI Order no. 24 Palma de Mallorca, of May 3, 2021 puts an end to the procedure by automatically estimating the jurisdictional immunity of the Cuban State as a defendant in the process.
