SAS Institute Inc v World Programming Ltd [2010] EWHC 1829 (Ch); TLR 11 February
The court dismissed an application by the claimant for the amendment of certain questions he had referred to the European

European Court of Justice are the referring court’s questions and it is for that court to formulate its questions.
