The Court of Appeal has reversed a High Court ruling that stopped liquidators of a failed finance company from receiving nearly $1 million.
The Five Star group called in receivers in 2007.
Five Star Finance owed creditors $43.8 million, of which $551,887 had been recovered.
In January, liquidators Gerald Rea and Paul Sargison of Gerry Rea Partners applied to the High Court to void payments worth $928,937,79 by Five Star Finance to Bowden No14 Trust, of which Ronald Leslie Russell was sole trustee, between September 2006 and August 2007.
Associate Judge Roger Bell turned down the application.
