Abadeen Group Pty Limited v Bluestone Property Services Pty Limited [2011] NSWSC 137
None of the offsetting claims advanced by Abadeen were found to be genuine, either due to insufficient evidence, invalid assignments, or limitations in the guarantees. The existence of an application for special leave to appeal did not provide sufficient grounds for exercise of the court's discretion under s 459J, given the limited prospects of success and absence of substantial error or issue of principle.
