    Case number
    FCMC12551/2017

    The application for litigation funding was dismissed because the applicant failed to discharge the burden of proving he could not reasonably procure legal representation by other means: he failed to make proper disclosure regarding the Australian company/trust, provided insufficient evidence that assets could not be deployed or that borrowing was impossible, and failed to explain the Legal Aid assessments; accordingly litigation funding was denied.

    Case number
    DCCJ1416/2016

    Although some business assets were not transferred exactly as alleged, the court found the business was owned by Countless Coins Limited and the defendant had not assumed personal liability; therefore there was no basis to hold the defendant personally liable and the plaintiff's claims against the defendant failed.
