ZK v BMA Braunschweigische Maschinenbauanstalt AG
Under Article 7(2), the court for the place where a company is established has jurisdiction over a collective action for damages in tort, delict or quasi-delict where that company's debts became irrecoverable because its grandparent company breached a duty of care towards that company's creditors, and the action is brought by the liquidator in the company's bankruptcy, under a statutory duty to wind up the estate, for the benefit of - but not on behalf of - the general body of creditors.
