Deangrove Pty Ltd v Commonwealth Bank of Australia

In the case of Deangrove Pty Ltd v Commonwealth Bank of Australia, the applicant sought to set aside an order of primary judge that dismissed their claim for relief against the Commonwealth Bank of Australia. The applicants argued that they had been induced to enter into security documents by misleading and deceptive conduct by the bank, and that the bank's conduct was unconscionable. The primary judge had found that the applicants had failed to prove their case and had dismissed their claim. The applicants sought to appeal the primary judge's decision, but the appeal was dismissed. The court found that the applicants had not established a case for relief on the basis of misleading and deceptive conduct or unconscionability.
