The court action begins for Arrows
Morgan Grenfell's case against Arrows and Tom Walkinshaw began in the High Court in London on Tuesday to decide whether or not a financial guarantee made by the team is stuill valid despite a restructuring of the company which was supposedly agreed in July 2001.
Morgan Grenfell won a High Court injunction last May to prevent the restructuring and Arrows and Walkinshaw failed to have the injunction lifted in July and were heavily criticised by the judge in the case.
The outcome of the case, expected in around eight days, will almost certainly decide whether or not the Arrows company will go into liquidation.
