Harris v Wallis: ChD 10 Mar 2006

The claimant sought his profit share from a partnership. The defendant complained that the claimant had for some time put his assets beyond reach, and obtained an order for security for costs. The claimant now appealed.
Held: The appeal failed. It was not necessary for a defendant in such an action to show that the claimant had taken this action with the intention of avoiding any enforcement.
