STB rejects application of lawyers representing buyers of Horizon Towers
Tuesday, October 23, 2007

Lawyers representing the buyers in the Horizon Towers case have had their application to be made parties in an upcoming hearing at the Strata Titles Board (STB) turned down.

Law firm Allen & Gledhill said STB is not allowing the purchaser, Horizon Towers Private Limited, to intervene.

The firm said STB gave its decision because there is “no material change of circumstances from the initial hearing”.

The upcoming hearing is a re-run of a previous hearing on August 3.

The STB then threw out Horizon Towers’ application on the basis it was defective because of missing pages.

But the High Court ruled that the STB was wrong to dismiss the application.

The High Court’s decision means that the STB has to continue hearing the application from where it left off.

Lawyers said the date of the hearing has not been confirmed but is likely to be October 30.
