Harmon CFEM Facade (UK) Ltd (In Voluntary Liquidation) v Corporate Officer of the House of Commons: QBD 15 Nov 2000

If an award of interim damages was properly payable, then it remained payable notwithstanding that the claimant was impecunious, and that in principle the damages might be come repayable where the claimant could have become unable to repay. It was wrong to debar a payment, but the possibility might be allowed for in the proportion of the damages award expected which might be payable as an interim award.
