- High Court
The court struck out the pleaded claims for an account of profits and the plaintiff's first cause of action (2008–2012) for failure to plead sufficient particulars and being speculative, allowed general pleading that other causes may be particularised after discovery where a reasonably arguable case exists, and refused Juken's application for a separate preliminary hearing on limitation because limitation and liability overlap such that a split hearing would not dispose the litigation or save time.
