Stop playing games: does an adjudication enforcement trump an insolvency moratorium? – Building magazine

In an article for Building magazine Lucie Briggs and Stephen Homer (Ashfords Solicitors) ask whether an adjudication enforcement trumps an insolvency moratorium by examining the January 2017 Coulson J judgment in the case of South Coast Construction Limited v Iverson Road Limited.

The case concerned proceedings for the enforcement of an adjudicator’s decision and is likely to have wide-ranging implications in respect of the interplay between the Insolvency Act 1986 and enforcement of adjudicators’ decisions, in particular what happens when a company, which has an adjudication decision against it, goes into administration.
