- Court
- High Court
The Insolvency (Cross-border) Act 2006 is procedural and contains no indication Parliament intended to create a private statutory cause of action; the Privacy Act remedy route is regulatory not a direct private tort against the trustee, the bribery allegation disclosed no known cause of action, and the District Court had jurisdiction to determine and dismiss unsupportable causes; accordingly the appeal was dismissed and the strike out/summary judgment upheld.
