Two applications in this action: 1) The Defendants’ application for the striking out and/or summary dismissal of the Claimants’ claims in the torts of unlawful means conspiracy and unlawful interference; and 2) The Claimants’ application for two contentions of law in BA’s Defence to be declared incorrect, struck out or summarily dismissed.
Those contentions in law are as follows: a) A cause of action in conspiracy cannot be based on foreign unlawful means; and b) If foreign unlawful means can be relied upon as unlawful means for the purpose of a conspiracy claim, a breach of a statute in country A would (at most) confer a cause of action in respect of loss sustained in country A and not elsewhere.
