Thomas Sandys (merchant)
''East India Company v Sandys'' (1684) 10 St Tr 371 is a UK company law and competition law case, concerning monopolies and the East India Company. Facts Thomas Sandys was an English merchant. Sandys traded in India, returning with a shipload of cloth which arrived in the English Channel in January 1682. When the ship sailed up the River Thames, officials of the East India Company, which held a monopoly on trading in the East Indies, seized the ship and attempted to levy a fine.
