| Decision notes | [2019] UKFTT 104 (PC). Application by trustees in bankruptcy to enter a Form J restriction against a property which had been jointly owned by the bankrupt and the respondent. Issue as to whether or not the bankrupt had ever had a beneficial interest in the property. At trial the applicants raised for the first time an issue over the tribunal’s jurisdiction to determine that question, and suggested that the tribunal’s jurisdiction was limited to considering whether or not the registered title ‘appeared' to be affected by the bankruptcy order because of the provisions of s.86(4) LRA 2002. I decided that s.86(4) had no relevance to an application to enter a Form J restriction and, by application of Jayasinghe v. Liyanage, that I did have jurisdiction to decide the substantive issue. So far as the substantive issue was concerned, this turned upon its own facts (this was a non-cohabitation case, so there was some brief consideration of common intention vs. resulting trust by reference to Stack v Dowden and Marr v. Collie). Application cancelled. |
