imhoffjosh Josh Imhoff Jordan beating up hicks attorney over hc case.

Confused, how can a TRO be dissolved at about 3am?

I thought the boards primary duty was in this order: To the Creditors (if approaching a deadline / default), The company and it's members, and then finally to the shareholders. This is UK law.

really?

seems he's not got much love from that Dallas paper. Although there is lesbian innuendo there.

i wonder if he will be allowed to leave with this case in it's current state.

get in, stage 1 complete. May need to show up in court in Texas though later today to get the injunction there lifted for caution. should be a formality with this ruling and proper knowledge of yestardays case for the judge. in which case we should send a basket or macaroons to judge texas's wife.

So that's who posted a pic of their knob!

From what i hear, and i believe the echo are reporting this... We have three options, 2 & 3 of which are under way... 1. Ignore Texas - they have no real juristiction here for this dispute. 2. We are back in the high court today persuiing an 'anti-suit' against Hicks as jurisctiction is already decided (Res Judicata) that any legal wranglings should be done in UK courts. The court may also issue a commital as Hicks is in comtempt - this means he's banged up if he steps foot in the UK 3. We are also persuiing a discharge of the injunction in Texas. just so ya know.

would be very surprised if this move hadn't been anticipated.

The judge will review the high court's ruling - and very unlikley to disagree.

unless the club has been legally sold - then it is not their debt to pay off.

Interestingly, and i was going to post this last night but was unsure - The High Court in London's decision will very unlikely be overturned by a texas court and their ruling will be respected - confirmed by some texan on the beeb. The High Court is like mount olympus to most legal people worldwide. Be interesting to see how this pans out. I imagine RBS will be in court in Dallas today.

agreed, concern, etc

can we recall aqua?

It's OK, I'm fine. difficulty was distance to nearest pan.

dammit, need a slash - don;t let them do anything in the next 5 minutes.

Appeal will probably be heard next week. IF there are grounds for an appeal.

I'm guessing that if he was going to adjourn for a full hearing, he would have done this tonight. I'm guessing that he's got all the evidence he needs and just wants a few hours in his club to consider the verdict.

Not how it works. This 'case' is simply were the board in a position to make a decision. Nothing else, the actual decision itself does not matter, so long as they can show reasonable thought for the good of the company, it's creditors, and then - and only then - it's shareholders the decision itself will not be called into question by the court. The papers for the sale have already been signed. Lim is too late, and the judge won't rule for the shareholders just because they are the shareholders. Another bid now will not even merit mention in court as this is not the argument.

Broughton or Purslow said that the second group were being kept in the wings in case the rod sex bid breaks down. This is more than likely where this story has come from.

If it's the directors thing, it will simply look at whether the directors were within their rights to make a decision, i.e: hadn't been legally sacked.

i would recommend being careful sending links, some firewalls will block links & the email containing them.
