AI summary
The High Court granted leave to appeal after dismissing the applicants' point in limine with costs. The judgment says the dispute concerned whether a 13 December 2024 resolution could authorise proceedings before the respondent came into existence on 16 December 2024, and whether a later 31 December 2024 resolution could ratify it.
This may be relevant to leave to appeal and disputes about corporate or association resolutions used to authorise litigation.
