''Re Gray’s Inn Construction Co Ltd'' 9801 WLR 711 is a leading UK insolvency law case, concerning the cessation of transactions without court approval after a winding up petition. Facts Gray’s Inn Construction Co Ltd was a building business, which did a number of small jobs. When one of its creditors, Field-Davis Ltd presented a petition, it was ordered to be wound up by the court. Between the petition date and the court order date, its bank, Natwest (Tavistock Square branch) allowed it to operate its account. It traded unprofitably. Judgment Buckley LJ declined to validate most of the transactions and gave guidance on when they would or would not be void. He held that all transactions in and out of the bank account were ‘dispositions’ within the Insolvency Act 1986 section 127 (at the time, CA 1948 s 227). The court should validate transactions to ensure that unsecured creditors will not be prejudiced, applications for specific transactions have to show proof there wi ...

Court Of Appeal (England And Wales) Cases
A court of appeals, also called a court of appeal, appellate court, appeal court, court of second instance or second instance court, is any court of law that is empowered to hear an appeal of a trial court or other lower tribunal. In much of the world, court systems are divided into at least three levels: the trial court, which initially hears cases and reviews evidence and testimony to determine the facts of the case; at least one intermediate appellate court; and a supreme court (or court of last resort) which primarily reviews the decisions of the intermediate courts, often on a discretionary basis. A particular court system's supreme court is its highest appellate court. Appellate courts nationwide can operate under varying rules. Under its standard of review, an appellate court decides the extent of the deference it would give to the lower court's decision, based on whether the appeal were one of fact or of law. In reviewing an issue of fact, an appellate court ordinar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Hollicourt (Contracts) Ltd V Bank Of Ireland
is a UK insolvency law case concerning whether a bank should pay restitution for moneys paid out of its account after a moratorium under the Insolvency Act 1986 section 127. Facts Hollicourt was a construction company and it went insolvent in 1996. The Bank of Ireland, 31 King Street, Leeds, continued to operate its account, paying money in and out, for three months after because it missed (through human error) the notification of the winding up petition in the Gazette. Blackburne J, applying dicta from Gray's Inn, held that the bank was liable to pay restitution for the money that had passed through its facility. Judgment Mummery LJ for the court ( Peter Gibson LJ and Latham LJ) held that Blackburne J was wrong. Only the final recipients, not the bank, were liable to repay the money. There was no unjust enrichment on the bank's part, and no comparable restitution case could be found. The banking transactions 'are merely part of the process by which dispositions of the company ...

In the Channel Islands and the Isle of ... gave Mr Stock’s company a £200,000 overdraft. Mr Stock gave a personal guarantee for it. Then came a winding up petition, as the account was £500 in credit. But by the time the petition was advertised, the account was overdrawn by £121,875 and £190,000 by the time the petition was granted. The bank honoured cheques in favour of third parties, most of which were three companies controlled by Mr Stock. Coutts & Co wanted to enforce the guarantee. Mr Stock argued the Insolvency Act 1986's section 127 prevented the bank from debiting the account, and so the bank could not recover from him.
