The court held that JSL were entitled to issue the section 286B summons because the Respondent had no legitimate basis to impose payment on account or require the former directors' consent before returning the Company's files; the Respondent's application for security for costs lacked a proper jurisdictional basis and was dismissed; accordingly costs of the summonses were awarded to JSL on an indemnity basis with directions for summary assessment.
