Mybarrister Ltd v Hewetson and others [2017] EWHC 2624 (Ch), [2017] All ER (D) 146 (Oct)
The applicant third party’s application for summary judgment on an additional claim based on an alleged collateral contract was allowed. The alleged collateral contract probably had not imposed a personal liability on the applicant and, if it had done, it would have constituted a ‘see to it’ obligation which would have fallen within the scope of the Statute of Frauds 1677.
