Judgment of the Tribunal in relation to the preliminary issue of limitation in relation to proceedings transferred from the High Court to the Competition Appeal Tribunal before service of the Particulars of Claim. The Tribunal concluded that a claim was properly made in the Competition Appeal Tribunal following the transfer, that that claim is one to which the Rule 31 period under the Competition Appeal Tribunal Rules 2003 applies and that the Defendants had no accrued contractual estoppel rights to defeat a prospective claim made within the Rule 31 period. The Claimants’ claim is therefore not time-barred.
This is an unofficial summary prepared by the Registry of the Competition Appeal Tribunal.
