It’s been quite a week for important cases on TUPE and its operation in relation to administrations. The Court of Appeal has delivered two judgments which are of considerable importance for those contemplating and structuring transactions out of administration.
The key points to note are that:
United Kingdom, Employment & Labor, Insolvency & Restructuring, Litigation, Dechert LLP, Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (UK), Court of Appeal of England & Wales
The Third Parties (Rights against Insurers) Act 2010 received Royal Assent on 25 March 2010. The Act modernises the Third Parties (Rights against Insurers) Act 1930 by streamlining the procedure by which a third party claimant can recover compensation from the insurer of a defendant.
United Kingdom, Insolvency & Restructuring, Insurance, RPC, Bankruptcy, Costs in English law, Legal personality, Debt, Liquidation, Unsecured creditor, Insolvency Act 1986 (UK), Court of Appeal of England & Wales
