Annotations

Flynote

Appeal – trial court's findings – trial court failing to rule on points raised – when court may disregard issue raised by party

Companies – directors – liability – personal liability for fraudulent conduct of business – action against directors – what must be shown – not necessary to prove fraud only – proof of recklessness or gross negligence sufficient

Practice and procedure – courts – issues raised by parties – not proper for court to decide only one of issues so raised unless such issue can determine the whole dispute between the parties
