MR JUSTICE MELLOR:
Introduction
- Yesterday, I granted a worldwide freezing order (‘WFO’) in the sum of £6m, on an
application brought by the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (‘COPA’) against Dr Craig
Wright. This judgment contains my reasons for granting that application and certain
directions on other applications.
- In my judgment, this is a plain case for a freezing injunction and one which extends
worldwide. In summary:
- First, COPA has a very powerful claim to be awarded a very substantial sum in
costs. - Second, I consider there is a very real risk of dissipation.
- Third, it is just in all the circumstances to grant a freezing order.
Other directions
- In a separate Order, I directed payment out of the sum of £1m lodged by COPA as part
of Dr Wright’s security for costs. I also gave directions for the exchange of further
written submissions on the applications for costs (and interim payment) brought by
COPA and the Developers. As currently advised (but subject to any further Order I may
be persuaded to make), I consider these applications can be determined on the papers and
those directions seek to facilitate that end.
#COPAvsWright - CSW meets SBF
If only someone had invented a technology that allows one to circumvent such freezing order...
Craig Wright is delusional.
He's delusional and a puppet. He's being paid by Calvin to stand up nchain and bsv. Calvin, The Workshop, RMcG etc. are master crafters in tech, lies and deception.
The only person I didn't understand was Matthews. He was a moron.
