- Decision summary
- The court found that the application to approve the transfer of shares in K from L to N contained a material misrepresentation under article 132(1) of the QFC Companies Regulations 2005. It set aside the QFC Companies Registration Office's approval and the purported share transfer, directed restoration of L as K's sole shareholder in the QFC Public Register, extended the injunction pending consequential steps, and ordered K to pay J's costs.
