High Court, in proceedings concerning the attempted removal of a liquidator and involving allegations of fraud and serious allegations against the judiciary, and which had been litigated before: (1) refuses the injunctions sought seeking to remove and/or restrain a liquidator, on the grounds that the applicant has not made out or met the relevant criteria for the award of an interlocutory injunction; and (2) refuses to set aside the orders made by other High Court judges, on the grounds that the Court cannot look behind two orders made by two different judges.
Liquidation – injunctions - petition to wind up company – liquidator owed €172,820.64 on foot of a High Court judgment – fraud alleged – injunction restraining the liquidator from progressing litigation for monies allegedly owed – restraining liquidator from acting – fraud, deception, deceit – set aside High Court judgments – application refused - has not made out or met the relevant criteria for the award of an interlocutory injunction - final orders which cannot be set aside by another judge in separate proceedings - application to set aside those judgments is one that should have been made on notice to the other parties having an interest in the application - substance of the allegation of fraud itself – principles governing the granting of injunctions – appealed to the Court of Appeal and then applied for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court - in order to ground an action to set aside a judgment, the plaintiff must allege fraud in the true sense, that is deliberate and purposeful dishonesty, knowing and intentional deceit of the court - the fraud alleged must be such as to affect the impugned decision in a fundamental way - particularity in pleading – allegations against judges – stamp duty was paid at the wrong level - applicant has repeatedly sought to go behind orders made by various judges of the High Court, in order to advance an argument that this court has no jurisdiction - cannot look behind two orders made by two different judges - rule in Henderson v. Henderson – application refused
