- High Court
The plaintiffs established a prima facie case that Mr Martin knowingly took steps to secure Dataeye IP in his own name while representing to investors that SBL owned the IP; contemporaneous documents and admissions linked communications with CreateIP to that objective and made those communications part of the instrumentation of the alleged dishonest purpose; accordingly s 67(1) applies and privilege is set aside for documents within specified categories.
