Ebrahimi v Westbourne Galleries Ltd; Re Westbourne Galleries Ltd
“
The words are a recognition of the fact that a limited company is more than a mere judicial entity, with a personality in law of its own: that there is room in company law for recognition of the fact that behind it, or amongst it, there are individuals, with rights, expectations and obligations inter se which are not necessarily submerged in the company structure.

Caparo Industries Plc v Dickman
“

“
It was a convenient phrase designed to broaden rather than restrict the scope of the court's jurisdiction in relation to schemes.

From this sort of consideration there has developed an approach that I consider to be well established on the authorities, which is to take the claimed programmed computer, and ask what it contributes to the art over and above the fact that it covers a programmed computer.
