CaseChat Overview and Summary

In *Dudley and Ryecroft (No 2)*, the applicant sought interlocutory relief against the respondent. The dispute concerned the respondent's alleged actions in assisting, facilitating, causing, or permitting F Pty Ltd to borrow money or further encumber its assets without the applicant's prior consent. The matter came before Forrest J.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether to grant an interlocutory injunction restraining the respondent from taking certain actions concerning F Pty Ltd's financial affairs. This involved considering the applicant's prospects of success in the underlying dispute and whether the balance of convenience favoured the grant of such relief.

Forrest J granted the interlocutory injunction, restraining the respondent from assisting, facilitating, causing, or permitting F Pty Ltd to borrow money or further encumber its assets without the applicant's prior consent. However, the application filed on 23 April 2020 was dismissed. Directions were also given regarding the filing of written submissions on costs.
