Shah v Ul-Haq & Ors [2009] EWCA Civ 542 (09 June 2009)

Description

Support of Fraudulent Claim Did Not Deprive Claimant of His Own Damages:The Court of Appeal held that there was no support in law for the proposition that a Claimant should be deprived of damages in his own claim purely on the basis that he had supported a fraudulent claim made by another person. It was invariably the case that, where a claim had been dishonestly exaggerated, a judge would award the limited damages that were appropriate to his findings, but would award the Claimant the damages to which he was indisputably entitled. There was no logical justification for suggesting that a Claimant who had lied about another person's claim should be treated any differently than someone who had lied about his own claim.
