- HCA1510/2020
The court refused the stay because the substantive disputes concern breaches by D1 arising from his position and the CEO Contract (which contains no arbitration clause) and D1 is not party to the SHA or FSA; claims against D2 and D3 are accessory knowing receipt claims dependent on D1's primary liability; the agreement at the centre of gravity is the CEO Contract and the SHA/FSA arbitration clauses do not cover these disputes, so the Amended Summons to stay was dismissed.
