- HCMP1640/2016
The court refused to proceed to grant the substantive production/examination orders because it was not satisfied on the evidence before it that the settled practice of the Australian courts would necessarily result in an equivalent order; accordingly, to avoid assisting the Australian court to go beyond what it would permit, the application was adjourned sine die with liberty to restore for costs and directions, and the Liquidators were directed to first seek an order in Australia if appropriate.
