Does that mean that in the aforementioned case, UZU was only trying to get the AOC restored but didn't sue for financial loss ensuing from the wrongfully withdrawn certificate? It feels very inadequate a judgment in UZU's favour if it wasn't accompanied by financial reparations for the shortfall incurred to be made.
