תביעה הוגשה נגד שורה של חברות זרות כאשר התובע המציא את המסמכים לחברות הזרות באמצעות דירקטורים ומנהלים בישראל של החברות.

בית המשפט קבע, כי כאשר מדובר בנתבע זר שמבקשים להמציא לו כתב בית דין מחוץ לתחום השיפוט יש לקבל היתר מבית המשפט. עם זאת, קיימים מצבים בהם ניתן יהיה להמציא מסמכים למורשה בישראל כשהמבחן הוא מידת האינטנסיביות של הקשר שבין ה"מורשה" לבין הנתבע והסבירות כי האדם לו המציאו  יעביר לידיעת הנתבע את דבר ההליכים שהוגשו נגדו.  במקרה זה נקבע כי דירקטורים ישראלים בחברות זרות המהווים, על פי דיני החברות, אורגנים מורשים באותן חברות, נחשבים למורשים לקבלת מסמכים.
