The commercial court granted the plaintiff's claim for unpaid transport services and awarded statutory late payment interest. The defendant argued that the invoices were merely accounting documents without evidence of a contract or performance, but the court rejected this as a mere defense line. Consequently, the court ruled in favor of the plaintiff based on the logical sequence of evidence provided, including CMR waybills and correspondence.
