Summary of the case:
The American Player Justin Hamilton and his Agency ASM Sports filed a claim against the Croatian Club KK Cibona Zagreb for outstanding salaries and agent fees, submitting that the Club made only partial payments. In its Answer, the Club argued that the Player did not comply with Croatian law (after becoming a Croatian citizen in the middle of the season) by providing invoices for the outstanding amounts and, therefore, was not entitled to terminate the Contract. The Arbitrator partially upheld the claim.
