The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeals: the High Court had jurisdiction over the account claim and power to make interlocutory orders and to transfer District Court matters under s.40 and its inherent jurisdiction; the appointment of Collier Petty (as firm and later corporate) was valid because 'person' includes bodies corporate and unincorporate; proxy voting provisions did not invalidate court-directed meeting procedures; the orders below were therefore upheld and indemnity costs were appropriate given the conduct and complexity of the litigation.
