Caltex Australia

Acted for Caltex Australia, against a large international software solutions company in the Commercial List of the Equity Division of the Supreme Court of NSW in a very substantial multimillion dollar dispute relating to the provision to Caltex of a fuel/credit card payment and reporting software system capable of dealing with millions of transactions each year. Both sides alleged multiple breaches and repudiation of contract by the other and claimed very substantial damages. The proceedings were factually and legally complex with many gigabytes of electronic discovery, and very significant lay and expert evidence involving many witnesses based in four countries. The matter settled just before trial.
