Contract - Company Establishment - Invalidation - Transfer of Ownership - Evidence - Validity
This case involved a request to invalidating a company establishment contract. It was claimed that ownership of the entity had been transferred to the claimant after he had paid company debts but that ownership had not been recognised and the company's form had been changed without his authorisation. It was stated it had not been possible to have a written contract as one of the defendants was the claimant's father. However, there was no proof of the transfer of the company as this could only be done in a specific form.
