Gohil v Gohil [2015] UKSC 61

James Ewins KC (sitting as a deputy High Court judge). Final hearing in ultra-high net worth case with allegations of non-disclosure and with complex trust and corporate structures.

DDJ Benjamin Rose. Judgment considering high-value assets, non-disclosure, jurisdictional questions, issues surrounding the validity of a nuptial settlement and general conduct of proceedings.

DJ Parker’s decision emphasises the importance of the court transcript where there is a dispute as to what was said by the judge. Ultimately H’s application to set aside a final order by consent failed because H was wrong; the FDR judge had not given him a 28-day cooling off period.
