Thanks guys! It is becoming more clear as I now know where to start looking and which case law to be looking at! I wanted to get some pointers on the kind of law that I will be dealing with.
After some months trading, Sunil is approached by Martin who runs a company supplying fibreglass which is used to make car bodywork kits. Martin tells Sunil that, if he can persuade his brothers to order fibreglass from his company, Martin will ‘see him right’. At a board meeting later that week, Sunil tells Anil and Nazir that he has compared the products of various suppliers and that Martin’s company produces the best fibreglass (which is true) but does not mention his conversation with Martin. On the basis of Sunil’s recommendation, the brothers agree to place a regular order with Martin who, two weeks later, sends Sunil a cheque for £1,000.(Is this wrong, I cant find anything about going behind the back of other shareholders....is it classed as fraud?)
Over the past year Nazir has felt increasingly isolated within the company. Anil and Sunil take all of the decisions and, because he is always outvoted, Nazir feels that there is little that he can do.(What can he do? Have a look at the articles of association?) The relationship between Nazir and the other brothers has become intolerable and so Nazir decides to leave the company. However, a clause in the company’s articles provides that any member wishing to sell their shares must sell them to the other members. Nazir has approached Anil and Sunil and asked them to buy his shares but has been told that they are not interested because they can get their own way anyway and so he should just ‘put up with it’. - I was thinking about the equitable winding up case, that tobacco company but I feel like i'm way off :/
Cheers guys - I'm no good with this law thing as you can see!! D:
