It is important to verify who the client is and what their status is when dealing with joint ventures. This case reveals how a simple mistake can have drastic consequences for all concerned.

Joint Ventures

Commercial Property

The question before the Court was whether using trust property as security for the acquisition of further property constituted a breach of trust, and if so whether that gave R a proprietary interest in a property, or simply a financial remedy. No authority could be found which was directly on point.

Commercial Leases

The High Court has determined that reference to ss122 & 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986 in a forfeiture clause requires a court determination that the tenant company is insolvent before the landlord is able to exercise its right of re-entry. As no determination had been made, the landlord’s attempt to forfeit was unlawful.

What do you enjoy about the publication?

“The variety of topics from eminent lawyers. I particularly like the photographs mixed in with the content as I find it makes reading and digesting the content easier as it is broken up rather than in a solid mass. The font size is excellent. “
