The four proceedings involve substantial overlap of core factual issues (beneficial ownership of shares, nominee arrangements and the relationships between Winston, Liu and Xing) and substantial overlap of principal parties and witnesses; the application was not premature and no real conflict of interests was shown. Accordingly, case management principles and Order 4 r 9(1) require the actions to be tried together to save costs, time and avoid inconsistent findings.
