The Tribunal of Terni ruled that the municipality of Terni must pay Atc & Partners Mobilità €158,674 plus VAT and legal costs. The court found that the municipality failed to apply contractually mandated annual inflation-indexed adjustments to public transport fees following 2018, violating agreements established in 2005 and reaffirmed in 2012 and 2013.

Judge Dorita Fratini determined the municipality acted in bad faith by unilaterally altering service conditions. The ruling allows the municipality to utilize off-balance-sheet debt procedures to settle the amount, though the decision remains subject to potential appeal.
