UK Court to Determine the amount that Irakli Rukhadze and his Business-partners have to Pay to Recovery Partners GP Limited and Revoker LLP by way of an account of profits.
On October 18 2021, the High Court of Justice of England and Wales has commenced the quantum stage of the proceedings between Recovery Partners GP Limited, Revoker LLP (Claimants) – AND – Mr Irakli Rukhadze, Mr Igor Alexeev, Mr Benjamin Marson (Individual Defendants), also Hunnewell Partners (UK) Limited; Hunnewell Partners (BVI) Limited; Park Street (GP) Limited, Park Street (BR) Limited and Park Street (GS) Limited; Park Street (L) Limited (Additional Defendants).
The liability trial of the Proceedings took place between June 25 and July 19, 2018, before Mrs Justice Cockerill. Cockerill J handed down her judgment on November 1 2018. In the Judgment, Cockerill found in favour of the Claimants.
The case concerns the recovery of the assets owned by the late billionaire Mr Badri Patarkatsishvili. With the 2018 judgment, Mrs Justice Cockerill established, amongst other things, that Irakli Rukhadze and his business partners breached their fiduciary duties to the Claimants.
Mrs Justice Cockerill ordered that, concerning the Defendants’ liability, the Claimants were entitled to elect whether there should be: (i) an inquiry as to equitable compensation or damages; or (ii) an account of profits. On February 14, 2019, the Claimants chose an account of profits.
