SUCCESS FOR BANK IN DISMISSING CLAIMS CONCERNING LONG TERM LOANS

Hodell v Clydesdale Bank plc [2018] EWHC 1009 (QB), 20/4/18

Judgment was handed down by HHJ Rawlings (sitting as a Judge of the High Court) in favour of Clydesdale Bank plc. A property developer, partnership and two companies brought claims for breach of an alleged contract to provide long term finance corresponding to the term of life and critical illness insurance policies, and in respect of alleged statutory misrepresentations. Claims were also made by the two non-corporate claimants of an unfair relationship under the CCA 1974. The Judge found that the contracts and representations had not been made and that there was no unfair relationship.

Scott Ralston acted for Clydesdale Bank plc, instructed by Gateley plc.
