In 2022, Daniel Beard K.C. and Jack Williams acted for Intel before the General Court, securing the annulment of a €1.06 billion fine for an alleged abuse of dominance. See here.

Yesterday (24 October 2024), the CJEU upheld the General Court’s decision and rejected the Commission’s appeal in full. The case has been widely reported in the press. The judgment is available here.

Daniel and Jack acted for Intel, and are also instructed by Intel in its interest claim (arising from the Commission’s failure to pay default interest following the General Court’s annulment of the fine) and its challenge to the Commission’s reimposed fine on certain conduct.
