Clearlake Shipping Pte Ltd v Xiang Da Marine Pte Ltd
[2019] EWHC 2284 (Comm)
Key Principle
The English court may grant an anti-suit injunction restraining foreign proceedings that are vexatious or oppressive because they are a procedural manoeuvre designed to evade an exclusive English jurisdiction clause, even where the foreign proceedings are framed as tortious claims against a party who is not itself bound by the clause.
