Mersey Docks Property Holdings v Michael Kilgour Transco
Plc
[2004]
BLR 412 TCC
Nature of case
Service of a claim form on the proprietor of a business under
CPR Part 6.5 (6) at the ‘last known place of business’ did mean the
last known place of business known to the claimant, but this
claimant’s solicitors had not taken reasonable steps to search for
the address, once the defendant’s name was revealed in the RIBA
directory. No extension of time would be granted and the
claim was limitation-barred.
Counsel: Adrian Williamson QC & Jane Lemon
