[2024] EWHC 1081 (Ch)

Judgment Date:

08 May 2024

The liquidator had brought a claim against Ethos (in Liquidation). Following a two day hearing in April 2024, this was refused by the High Court: CHRISTOPHER PURKISS (as Liquidator of Ethos Solutions Limited) V Tim Kennedy and Others Case No: CR-2018-010778

This case concludes the Hat Trick. The respondents, represented by Setu, had earlier made a strikeout application which was successful in relation to one of the two claims: Hall (Liquidator of Ethos Solutions Ltd) v Nasim & Ors [2021] EWHC 142 (Ch) (04 February 2021) .

In April 2022, the Liquidator, on having had sight of the respondents’ response to his remaining claim, had sought to amend it. Following a four-day hearing, the court refused this application too for multiple reasons: Christopher Purkiss v Tim Kennedy and others [2022] EWHC 3098 (Ch).
