quilp Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Going by Kevster's link I must have my aggrieved parties mixed up. Does Sondica have a case for damages or expenses? Haven't they been given the heave-ho? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Yeah they are unhappy at being given the heave-ho. The subsequent idea of the hotel / cinema there is still in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Sondica have a case for damages or expenses? Haven't they been given the heave-ho? They don’t know. They want to find out. The hearing was because they applied, quite late in the day, to be given government documents to see if they could claim. It’s called pre action disclosure. The court said they might have a claim, it might be arguable, that doesn’t mean they’d win, just that if what they say is true a court would hear their case. So they’re going to get the papers. Then see if they’ve got a case. it won’t upset the current deal. It’s just for their alleged wasted time and effort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actual ruling is here. Looks like the same bid to me despite what you said https://www.judgments.im/content/J2470.htm Deemsters conclusion which seems to be basically urging them to settle out of court. Probably more of our cash spent making this go away. ”48. I conclude by stating that, on the key issue of contention in this application, I am persuaded that the Applicants have a potential and arguable cause of action and that the Respondent is likely (perhaps with others) to be a party to subsequent proceedings. I am also persuaded that the remaining requirements of Rule 7.45 are satisfied and that in particular disclosure before proceedings have started is desirable in order both to dispose fairly of the anticipated proceedings and to assist the dispute to be resolved without proceedings, and to save costs. Subject to further submissions on the precise content and scope of the order, I am persuaded that an order for pre-action disclosure is appropriate in this case.” So looks like the taxpayer is going to get shafted... yet again! When will shite like this cease? It's feckin' toy town governance. Do we employ any adults in IOMG? At all? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
