Vijay Mallya fails to delay $ 40mn Diageo claim, legal costs mount in UK

Live Mint  

Even as he renewed an appeal against his extradition to India, embattled liquor tycoon Vijay Mallya suffered another legal setback on Friday in a separate USD 40-million claims case brought by British liquor giant Diageo plc in the UK High Court. “The claimants say that if the May hearing is adjourned they will suffer prejudice…there would be a race in relation to Mallya’s assets which are subject to a number of competing claims; Mallya may be extradited and this will affect the ability to enforce the judgment against him,” the judge noted, in reference to the extradition order and worldwide freezing order already in place against Mallya. He raised the worldwide freezing order against Mallya, confirmed by a UK High Court order in May 2018, as the reason for some delays in clearing overdue legal invoices. However, Diageo’s counsel instructed by law firm Slaughter and May, Barrister Saul Lemer, argued that Mallya had “historically procrastinated” in the case and used the “same strategy time and again" of changing solicitors and seeking more time from the court.
