Mr Holt brought a claim for credit hire charges only (on behalf of the credit hire provider, Auxillis), arising out of a RTA on 16th July 2020.
Allianz issued a pre-action disclosure application against Mr Holt which came before HHJ Harrison at Cardiff County Court on 18th October 2021. In a reserved judgement dated 3rd December 2021, HHJ Harrison granted Allianz’s application for disclosure for Mr Holt’s bank, credit card, and savings account statements covering the period of hire and for a period of three months prior as well as wage slips and other proof of income for the same period.
Auxillis applied for permission to appeal. Auxillis were refused permission to appeal but upon a further application to the High Court, Bourne J granted permission.
