R (UMBS Online Ltd) v Serious Organised Crime Agency [2007] EWCA Civ 406, [2007] All ER (D) 35 (May)

The Serious Organised Crime Agency should not withhold consent to a bank to allow it to operate a customer’s account under s 335 of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 without good reason. It has an obligation to keep matters under review and so it must give the bank consent when there is no longer any good reason for withholding it.
