Summary judgment was refused and conditional leave to defend was granted because sworn plaintiff evidence claiming beneficial ownership from 2008 conflicts with contemporaneous documentary and transactional evidence (notably transfers and share offers in 2011), creating real triable issues about whether the 2014 declarations created a trust or merely recorded an existing position or were sham; accordingly the defendant is permitted to defend subject to specified protective undertakings.
