Deutsche Bank AG and others v Unitech Global Ltd and another; Deutsche Bank AG v Unitech Ltd [2016] EWCA Civ 119, [2016] All ER (D) 57 (Mar)
The Court of Appeal dismissed the Unitech parties’ appeal against the refusal to allow amendments to their pleadings in relation to five intended defences and allowed the lenders’ cross-appeal against the refusal to order a payment into court or an interim payment. In respect of the latter, it was appropriate in the circumstances to make an order in line with the lenders’ preference for a requirement for a payment into court.
