- Court of First Instance
- Case number
- HCA914/1980
The court held that Golden Jet had a bona fide triable defence because a legal set-off or counterclaim against Transmeridian's claim for hire could arguably be raised in the context of an air charter; therefore leave to sign final judgment should not have been granted on Order 14 and the Master's order was set aside; the actions were to be consolidated with leave to set off and transferred to the Commercial List for full trial.
