America’s Cup court battle continues
Former America’s Cup insider Sean Reeves is continuing his fight against having to pay nearly $2 million after a United States court finding that he broke a OneWorld Challenge secrecy clause.
Mr Reeves, a former Team New Zealand and OneWorld Challenge member, was sued for allegedly retaining and disclosing OneWorld’s confidential information.
Yesterday the Court of Appeal at Wellington reserved its decision on Mr Reeves’ appeal against a New Zealand High Court ruling that he did not have an arguable defence to avoid enforcement of the US judgment here.
If Mr Reeves wins in the Court of Appeal the case will probably go back to the High Court for an airing of his allegation that the judgment should not be enforced in New Zealand because through it OneWorld is trying to suppress evidence of its own wrongdoing.
