Attorneys Charles Langereis and Martin Lambregts, along with Arjen van Rijn of De Clerq Advocaten, are representing gas station operators in the border region in their fight against the recent excise duty increase on diesel and LPG. This excise duty increase is causing the border station operators to lose many customers to Belgium and Germany, making it impossible for them to operate their stations profitably. The border station operators are holding the State liable for this and are seeking damages. A preliminary injunction has been filed. The case will be heard on January 20, 2015.
