Gecic Law, working with Deloitte Legal and RPHS Law, has advised MTS on a dispute with Pristina authorities stemming from the decision to revoke MTS’s operating license in Kosovo.

MTS d.o.o. is a subsidiary of Telekom Srbija.

According to Gecic Law, “the contentious decision threatened to halt MTS’s operations within Kosovo, wiping out its registration from the business registry. These actions by the authorities were predicated on claims that MTS’s official documents clashed with local constitutional provisions and regulations.” In September 2023, the “Commission for Reviewing Business Registration Complaints of the Ministry of Industry, Entrepreneurship, and Trade in Pristina redacted its former decision, thereby reinstating MTS’s registration in the business registry.”

The Gecic Law team included Founding Partner Bogdan Gecic, Partner Ognjen Colic, Senior Associate Vuk Lekovic, and Counsel Branko Gabric.

The RPHS Law team included Partner Kushtrim Palushi.
