Aircraft leases – forfeiture – relief

Celestial Aviation Trading 71 Limited v Paramount Airways Private Limited [2010] EWHC 185 (Comm) (Hamblen J 11 February 2010)

While on the subject of forfeiture we mention this case in brief because it is of passing interest. The full judgment runs to some 31 pages and goes into the issues in much detail. For those who wish to study some of the history the equitable remedy of relief against forfeiture in commercial contracts, the judgment includes a useful review of the authorities.
