Federal Bank of the Middle East Limited v Charles Hadkinson and Others: ChD 20 Oct 1999

Security for costs had been properly been required from a defendant who wished to appeal against an order, where that defendant was funded by a party outside the jurisdiction. The right of a party to appeal given by the new Civil Procedure Rules only after leave and therefore only when some merit in the appeal could be seen was not enough to set aside such an order. The requirement did not stifle the exercise of the right of appeal.
