COMMERCIAL
Judgment givenCase summary:Does a car dealer who receives a commission from a lender for arranging finance in a tripartite transaction between customer, dealer, and lender in which a car is bought on credit owe a duty to the buyer of the car such as to enable that buyer (absent the requisite level of disclosure) to bring a claim against the lender for bribery or dishonest assistance, or under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 (the “CCA”)? The appeal requires the determination of the following sub-issues: (i) Does, or should, the law recognise a distinct tort of bribery? (ii) If such a tort is recognised, what is the nature of the duty or relationship (here between dealer and customer) that must exist in order for the tort to be engaged? (iii) Relatedly, what level of disclosure will prevent liability for bribery from arising? (iv) In Mr Johnson’s case, was the relationship between customer and lender “unfair” for the purposes of the CCA?
