Civil procedure

Ashraf Mengrani v Ilyas Mohamed & Anor

The claimant had a good arguable case that 17 Haslemere Gardens was the defendants' usual or last known residence for service under CPR 6.9, and reasonable steps were taken to ascertain the address. Section 1140 Companies Act 2006 did not apply as the defendants were sued as trustees, not directors. The defendants did not waive their jurisdiction challenge by seeking a stay. The case is suitable for ADR, but a stay should be imposed after a directions hearing to clarify outstanding issues and evidence.

  • Jurisdiction
  • Trustee duties
  • Alternative dispute resolution
