The claimants make allegations of fraud against the defendants arising out of their business dealings. Against that background, Zacaroli J made both without notice freezing and disclosure orders against the defendants and, against F, a further order referred to as the quia timet injunction. The effect of the quia timet injunction was to restrain F from disposing of the assets of three specified companies, of which he was and is a director. That was in light of a concern that, unless otherwise restrained, he might take steps to dispose of such assets at an undervalue.
