The Supreme Court of Slovenia granted the review application regarding the nature of freight charges in a forwarding contract dispute. The lower courts ruled that the forwarding agent must pay the carrier's charges and subsequently claim them from the shipper. The court decided to allow the review because the question of whether these charges constitute a cost under Article 865 of the Obligations Act or a contractual damages obligation requires final clarification.

[JEDRO]

Revizija se dopusti glede vprašanja, ali ima v primeru sklenjene špedicijske pogodbe stojnina, ki jo prevozniku plača špediter in jo nato terja od naročnika storitve, v razmerju med špediterjem in naročnikom, naravo stroška v smislu 865. člena OZ ali gre za pogodbeno odškodninsko obveznost.

[OBRAZLOŽITEV]

1. Sodišče prve stopnje je toženki naložilo plačilo stojnine za blago, ki je bilo transportirano z ladijskim prevozom na podlagi špedicijske pogodbe, ki sta jo sklenili tožnica kot špediter (v svojem imenu in za račun naročitelja) in toženka kot naročitelj.

2. Sodišče druge stopnje je pritožbo toženke zavrnilo in potrdilo sodbo sodišča prve stopnje.

3. Zoper sodbo sodišča druge stopnje toženka vlaga predlog za dopustitev revizije.

4. Revizijsko sodišče ugotavlja, da so izpolnjeni pogoji za dopustitev revizije iz prvega odstavka 367.a člena Zakona o pravdnem postopku glede vprašanja, opredeljenega v izreku sklepa. Revizijo je zato v tem obsegu dopustilo.

5. Vrhovno sodišče je odločbo sprejelo soglasno (sedmi odstavek 324. člena ZPP).
