4Eng Ltd v Harper and Others: ChD 26 Oct 2009

The claimant sought to set aside transactions entered into by the defendants which, it said were intended fraudulently to defeat claims by their creditors.
Held: When considering the extent of recovery available under the sections of the 1986 Act, the court should consider general principles applicable in all areas of law. The Act did not require any particular mental state in a recipient of assets to such an application. The orders were granted against the transferees.
