In a costs judgment dated 3 July 2023, the Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court, led by Registrar Mr. Umar Azmeh, ruled on a case involving claimant Stephen Ferris and defendants Sanguine Investment Managers LLC and Christopher John Leach. The defendants failed to respond to the claimant's application, leading the court to order them to disclose their assets and cover the claimant's costs of USD 2,610. The court emphasized the defendants' non-compliance and prolonged dispute, ultimately holding them jointly and severally liable for the costs, payable immediately. The claimant was represented by Sultan Al-Abdulla & Partners, while the defendants were unrepresented.
