Assessment instructions The purpose of this assessment is to prepare a report that examines the Courts within the Australian legal system and the rights and remedies available within the civil law jurisdiction.
You are to read the following case scenario and then answer the questions below.
You work as a lawyer in the Sydney CBD. Your firm's name is Smith & Co Lawyers. Last week, Oliver Thomas, director of a large Australia fashion company, Golce & Habbana made an appointment to come and
see you. During that appointment, Oliver explained to you that his company had supplied over 50 couture fashion items to a Sydney retail company, Alexander Couture Pty Ltd (“Alexander”) at wholesale price. Alexander was to place the couture items for retail sale in their flagship store in Paddington.
The total sum of the products supplied to Alexander was $850,000. Alexander was invoiced at the time of supply and payment was required within 7 days being 1 January 2022. Despite requests for payment from Golce and Habbana, Alexander has still not paid.
Tom is aware that Alexander is a proprietary company with 5 directors. Upon further investigations, it is revealed that Alexander has been incorporated since 2017 and has 4 retail stores located around Australia. There are a number of properties and assets registered in the name of the company. Of late however, Alexander has suffered financial loss. One of the directors, Tina Purcell has been using company funds to support her lavish lifestyle including the recent purchase of a 2021 Ferrari Motor Vehicle and luxury yacht together totalling more than $3 million. In addition, there is suspicion that Alexander may have been unable to pay their bills as and when they fall due for at least the past 6 months.
Your are to advice Tom and Golce & Habbana as to the following:
1. Draft a brief solicitor's letter of demand addressed to Alexander The letter should contain all the necessary information required of a letter of demand.
2. In the event that the matter proceeds to litigation, advise Golce and Habbana what Court you would commence proceedings in and why.
3. In the event that Golce and Habbana is successful in obtaining Judgment against Alexander, advise them on the most effective enforcement options to recover the funds and why.
4. Discuss whether you can take any action against any of the directors of Alexander and on what basis. You should include reference to the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).
The due date for the assessment is 11:55pm on Sunday of week 4.
This is an individual assessment. The report should be 900 words +/- 10%.
