Shirayama Shokusan Company Ltd v Danovo Ltd (No 2) (2004)

Judgment Date: 26 Feb 2004

Following Blackburne J's earlier order for compulsory mediation, a representative of the Claimants (Mr Okamoto), whose attendance the Judge had earlier described as "essential", refused to attend the mediation, and the 1st to 5th Claimants sought to attend the mediation through a solicitor instead. The Defendant was unhappy with this approach, and applied for directions: in particular, for an order staying the proceedings until the conclusion of a mediation attended by identified representatives of the Claimants and of the Defendants, including Mr Okamoto.

Ezekiel v Fraser (2002)

Judgment Date: 04 Oct 2002

The hearing was an appeal from a decision of Master Moncaster, giving summary judgment in favour of the Claimants. The key issue on the appeal was which of successive bare possessors of land was entitled to possession as against the other. The Claimants (who had been there first) relied only upon their claim to have title by virtue of prior possession - their alternative case based upon an alleged beneficial ownership of the land (which was registered) was not pursued at the summary judgment stage. The Defendants (who had entered later) relied on the factual circumstances as having given them what the law regards as lawful possession.

Judgment Date: 27 Jul 1999

The Defendant had sought to obtain an extension to his lease under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993. He had served a notice of claim, but the reversion had since been assigned by the reversioner on whom the notice had been served.
