Front | 20: A Mareva injunction was ordered freezing the assets of John. John has two bank accounts. One is in Dublin and the other is in Oslo. Both banks were given notice of the order. John has been warned by the court that he will be in contempt if he removes these assets. John goes to the Dublin branch to speak with the branch manager Paul (who is John’s best friend) to authorise the withdrawal of a couple of hundred euro so that John can meet his “legitimate day-to-day expenses”. Paul consents. John then flies to Norway and has the same conversation with his bank manager Ola (John’s brother-in-law). This time however, John sought to withdraw all funds (9,000 Euro) and close the account, which Ola consented to. John then hops on a plane to Rio. Contempt charges have been issued. But against whom? A) John on two counts and Paul on one count B) John on one count and Ola on one count C) John on two counts. D) John on two counts, Paul on one count and Ola on one count |
