Questione giuridica chiave
Whether capitalized interest included in the current-account balance counts toward the amount in dispute.
Decisione estratta
Yes. Interest capitalized by contract during the current-account relationship forms part of the principal claim and is counted in the value in dispute.
Motivazione estratta
Because the parties agreed that interest would be added to capital during the running account, those sums were not ancillary interest but an element of the main debt.
