CS de­feats ap­plic­a­tion for a writ of at­tach­ment against the Quor­um Group

May 7, 2009

The Su­per­i­or Court of Cali­for­nia, County of Or­ange (Judge James di Cesare) denied a re­quest for a writ of at­tach­ment freez­ing the as­sets of our cli­ent, a seis­mic-ima­ging com­pany based in Cali­for­nia with op­er­a­tions in China, the Middle East, and North Amer­ica.

The writ of at­tach­ment was sought by our cli­ent’s former pres­id­ent, who was ter­min­ated for cause shortly after he filed his law­suit and who is cur­rently a de­fend­ant in a law­suit brought by our cli­ent in the United States Dis­trict Court for the Cent­ral Dis­trict of Cali­for­nia for breach of fi­du­ciary duty and vi­ol­a­tions of the Lan­ham Act.

Ca­mara & Sib­ley rep­res­ents this cli­ent in its ca­pa­city as coun­sel to the Quor­um Group of Com­pan­ies and the Quor­um Oil & Gas Tech­no­logy Fund, a con­glom­er­ate and in­vest­ment fund pub­licly traded on the Lon­don Stock Ex­change and based in Cal­gary and Toronto.

K.A.D. Ca­mara and Joe Sib­ley briefed and ar­gued the writ of at­tach­ment.
