HEPWORTH SUPPLIERS LIMITED VS. INNOVATIVE MATERIAL SYSTEMS, APPEAL NO. 178 OF 2023
Authors: Sydney Chisenga and Martha Siwale Namwila- Mwala
Date: 10 December 2024
On 4 July 2024, the Court of Appeal delivered an instructive judgment that brought to fore the limited circumstances in which the Court may pierce the corporate veil. The Judgment not only reinforced the precedent established by the Supreme Court in the earlier decision of Madison Investment Property and Advisory Company vs. Peter Kanyinji SCZ Judgment No. 48 of 2018 but further considered the applicability and enforcement of charging orders within the jurisdiction.
