Unfair negotiations breach good faith principles but do not cause foreseeable lost profit damages.

The Supreme Court of Slovenia rejected the applicant's appeal against the dismissal of a claim for damages arising from unfair negotiations. The applicant argued that the respondent's refusal to sign a representation agreement, after promising to do so, caused him to miss a lawsuit that would have secured a permanent employment contract and future income. The court acknowledged the breach of good faith principles but held that the respondent could not foresee or reasonably expect such a distant and extraordinary consequence, thus lacking the necessary causal link for lost profit damages.
