Catchwords

This case concerns a High Court action against the third defendant bank arising from the payment under bank guarantees and the subsequent restructuring of that sum into a term loan following the issuance of a Certificate of Practical Completion (“CPC”). The key legal issues were whether the plaintiff disclosed any reasonable cause of action against the bank and whether the claim was an abuse of process under O 18 r 19 of the Rules of Court 2012. The Court held that the claims were plainly unsustainable, the relationship was purely contractual with no fiduciary duty, and struck out the action against the third defendant.
