Hammer's Slammers - At Any Price

Arrow Books, Limited

This well-established and authoritative work, now in its seventh edition, is the most detailed reference source on the law relating to minority shareholders. As more and more legal emphasis is put on corporate governance, and as the influence of shareholder activism continues to grow, this book is the leading resource for practitioners requiring up-to-date, detailed information on the rights and remedies available to minority shareholders. The book provides detailed and incisive coverage of section 994 petitions, derivative claims, just and equitable winding-up petitions, and the foreign aspects of shareholder disputes, as well as shareholders' personal claims against companies and the rights conferred on them by the Companies Act 2006. The seventh edition examines all significant recent case law from the UK, including Sevilleja v Marex Financial Ltd on reflective loss, and Loveridge v Loveridge, Re Westshield Ltd, and UTB plc v Sheffield Utd on unfair prejudice. The work also considers case law from courts of other jurisdictions with analogous shareholder provisions, in particular Hong Kong, Singapore, and the Caribbean.

This leading work on the law relating to minority shareholders is now in its third edition. There have been a number of important decisions since the last edition particularly on reflective loss, derivative claims and limitations on the right to proceed by those claims. The sections on derivative claims, limitations on the right to proceed by these claims and unfair prejudice have been subject to particularly thorough revision to include these developments in the law. The new edition also includes changes introduced by the expected Companies Act. There is a new chapter on directors' duties as far as they relate to minority shareholders, reflecting the prominence of this area in the new legislation.

Minority Rights have become more and more topical due to the rise in importance of corporate governance and the increase in shareholder activism. This well-established work on the law relating to minority shareholders provides practitioners with the most detailed reference on the subject. Minority Shareholders addresses the full impacts of the Companies Act 2006. It covers more than 50 new cases, including many relating to unfair prejudice (such as Neath Rugby Ltd, Southern Counties Fresh Foods Ltd and Sunrise Radio Ltd), as well as multiple derivative actions (Waddington v Chan). The book also has practical appendices which include a full range of forms, precedents and statutory material as well as parts of the Companies Act 2006 making this a complete resource for the practitioner. The new introductory chapter is a useful outline of general issues such as the foundations of a derivative claim and the source of the complaint, giving a clear understanding of the legal practice and procedure. The well-regarded team, led by Victor Joffe QC, is joined by a new author, Tim Collingwood. He confers experience and expertise to the material on rights granted to shareholders.

This well-established work on the law relating to minority shareholders provides practitioners with the most detailed reference on the subject. The new edition includes a chapter on foreign aspects of minority shareholder litigation which covers all of the jurisdictional and procedural issues concerned with litigation involving foreign companies and foreign parties. There are also substantially more detailed chapters on directors' duties and derivative claims. The new edition includes analysis of many important decisions covering the following areas: DT Derivative claim procedure and alternative remedies DT Unfairly prejudicial conduct, attribution of responsibility and appropriate parties DT Personal rights of shareholders, their liability and piercing the corporate veil DT The mechanics of share valuation As in previous editions, the fifth edition provides the best-organised, and most accessible analysis available of the application of legislation and authorities to difficult areas of practice. It contains a very detailed treatment of procedural matters and incudes practical guidance and tools such as precedents.

Accompanied by a handpicked crew of the toughest mercenaries and most brilliant specialists in human space, Lissea Doorman sets out in the starship Swift to take her rightful place as one of the rulers of Telaria.
