Seafarms Group Limited v McKinnon [2025] QSC 45 involved the Plaintiff, Seafarms Group Limited (SFG), seeking to recover against the deed administrators, pursuant to a clause of the Deed of Company Arrangement (DOCA). The numbers of parties to the proceeding expanded significantly since SFG’s originating application, with several separate applications seeking relief being considered by the Court. The findings of the Court included, but were not limited to, the Deed Fund being the property of Project Sea Dragon (PSD), that SFG had no right to repayment pursuant to the DOCA, and that the Administrators had no present liability to SFG under the Funding Agreement.
