Gecic Law and Maric & Co have successfully represented the interests of the Arena Channels Group before the Competition Authority and courts of Bosnia and Herzegovina in an antitrust case.

According to Gecic Law, "the Competition Authority of Bosnia and Herzegovina initiated an investigation, prompted by Telemach, alleging abuse of market dominance by the Arena Channels Group. After a thorough investigation, the Competition Authority dismissed the complaint, [satisfied with the] Arena Channels Group's equitable engagement within the market. The dispute persisted as the initial claimant challenged the Competition Authority's decision. However, the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina ultimately affirmed Arena Channels Group's innocence, validating the Competition Authority's findings."

Subsequently, the same reports, Telemach "filed a request for review of the Court’s judgment. They asserted that the Court did not adequately consider the allegations made in the lawsuit. The Appellate Division of the Court found the extraordinary legal remedy unfounded. It also upheld its prior ruling, affirming the ACG’s innocence of market abuse allegations."

The Gecic Law team included Founding Partner Bogdan Gecic, Senior Associate Vuk Lekovic, and Associates Milica Novakovic and Nikola Ivkovic.

The Maric & Co team included Partner Ezmana Turkovic.
