Supreme Court dismissed appeal regarding legal costs where plaintiff failed to prove entitlement under specific statute.

The Supreme Court of Finland dismissed the plaintiff's appeal concerning the reimbursement of legal costs incurred during the proceedings. The plaintiff argued that the costs should be covered based on the principle of equality before the law, while the opposing party contended that no statutory basis existed for such reimbursement in this context. The court ruled that without a specific legal provision granting the right to cost recovery, the claim was legally unfounded and therefore rejected.
