Granville Technology Group v LG Display Co - Cartel Damages Appeal

The England and Wales Court of Appeal (Civil Division) partially allowed an appeal in Granville Technology Group Ltd & Ors v LG Display Co Ltd, a follow-on cartel damages claim. The original judge awarded £942,438 in damages (after settlements) for losses from an unlawful price-fixing cartel, substantially less than the £4,412,716 assessed. The Court found the judge erred in applying a principle of under-compensation and in determining the overcharge, succeeding on those grounds to a limited extent.

Singh v Bains - Share Ownership Dispute

The England and Wales Court of Appeal dismissed Sukhwinder Singh's appeal challenging the High Court's finding that no oral agreement existed for equal shareholding in GB Retail Limited. The appellant sought specific performance of an alleged oral agreement with Makhan Singh Bains, but the court upheld the trial judge's factual finding that no such agreement was made. Lord Justice Miles delivered the leading judgment.
