    ANTWERP DIAMOND BANK N.V. v. BRINK’S, INCORPORATED AND OTHERS

    Citation
    ANTWERP DIAMOND BANK N.V. v. BRINK’S, INCORPORATED AND OTHERS
    Court
    Court of Appeal
    Case number
    CACV282/2012

    Leave to appeal was refused because the appeal did not qualify as of right (plaintiff sought unliquidated damages not proprietary relief) and the novel questions relied upon were not argued below; no exceptional reason to grant leave under the alternative limb. The trial sanctioned offer engaged Order 22 for the trial stage: the 3rd Defendant must pay trial costs on indemnity basis from 6 August 2011 and enhanced interest on damages is appropriate. Appeal costs remain party and party. Court varied its prior orders accordingly.
