About the Webinar

Following protracted legal proceedings and what the court described as a decade-long campaign to eliminate a minority shareholder, the court handed down the latest decision in Slea Pty Ltd v Conenctive Services Pty Ltd.  The decision, which has been described as epic in terms of its scale and its findings, is set to significantly impact how minority shareholder oppression claims are dealt with by courts across Australia. To help breakdown this decision and other important decisions of late, this session explores:

  • The Slea decision and the key takeaways for practitioners
  • How minority shareholder oppression claims should be run in light of recent decisions and the scope of relief the court can order under s233
  • When, and under what principles, the oppressed party can buy out the shares of the majority
  • What lies ahead in the world of shareholder oppression claims and cases to look out for in the near future
