On 6 May 2019, the General Court issued its judgment in the Scor vs Commission Case, ending a 6 year-long legal battle initiated by Scor against the French State regarding unlimited guarantees in favour of its competitor CCR. This Case reminds us of the procedural difficulties facing third-party competitors when willing to challenge a Phase I State aid Decision on the merits. It also contributes to set a rare EU decisional precedent declaring a State aid in the form of an unlimited public guarantee compatible with the internal market.
