- Case summary
- The removal of Mr Chilton as a Joint Official Liquidator and the subsequent appointment of Mr Greenwood had the effect of terminating or suspending the recognition of Messrs Johnson and Chilton as Joint Official Liquidators under the TCI Order of Recognition. By recognizing the order of the BVI court, the TCI court did not appoint Messrs Johnson and Chilton to the office of joint official liquidators, it merely recognized that they were so appointed by the BVI Court and permitted them to function as such in the TCI (para 13) The removal of Mr Chilton on 28 October 2018 as one of the joint official liquidators ended the joint appointment under the BVI order. Mr Chilton could no longer act as one of the joint liquidators whether in the BVI or in the TCI, notwithstanding his earlier recognition by the TCI court. Johnson could not act jointly, in the TCI, with Greenwood until that appointment was recognized in the TCI. The effect of the removal of Mr Chilton in 2018 was to terminate the joint appointment under the BVI Order and thereby the recognition under the Recognition Order (paras 11- 16) R v William Wake 8EL & BL 397
