See now if Swiss hires a Lawyer to fight this then they are really stupid. A day in small claims court and preparation will easily cost Swiss £2000 in Lawyer fees and the penalty for the same is 1/4th that. Logically I would expect them to pay and be done with it. I just paid £600 for 5 minutes work at SCC to a Lawyer. I can expect Swiss Lawyers to charge 3-4 times that.

Also in a SCC I doubt the judge would go into the details. Person was flown to Europe on a valid ticket.
a small claims court can't simply ignore the law. why would a judge ignore legal argument?
