On June 28 the Chamber of Civil and Commercial Cases of the RA Court of Cassation declined the challenge of the founder of "A1+" TV company, "Meltex" LLC, for the decision of the RA Commercial Court of May 17 (see YPC Weekly Newsletter, May 11-24, 2002). The suit of "Meltex" versus "Television Network of Armenia” SCJSC had been filed with the court of primary jurisdiction and demanded to annul the decision of “Television Network of Armenia” of stopping the broadcasts of “A1+” passed on April 2, 2002. The demand of the plaintiff to restore the broadcasts of the TV company was substantiated by the argument that having switched “A1+” out of its air in the early morning of April 3, “Television Network of Armenia” violated the existing agreement on the transmission of the programs of the TV company.
