The Court of Appeal sided with Aguila’s argument stating that, “the plain language of this contract expresses an unmistakable intent to make the forum provision exclusive…[and that] there was no ambiguity.”  The Court of Appeal concluded that the forum selection clause, as written, was mandatory, exclusive and unambiguous and, thus, the case should be litigated in Brazil. The Third District Court of Appeal reversed the trial court order on October 17, 2018.
