Key Principle

Permission to serve out of the jurisdiction and the assumed jurisdiction will be set aside under CPR Part 11 where England is not the proper place to bring the claim: even where a restitution/unjust-enrichment claim has English-law connections through an English-law contract, the centre of gravity of an accompanying deceit claim located abroad can mean England is not the appropriate forum.
