Norris v Government of the United States of America (No 2)
“
The traditional statement of the principle is that a surrendered person will not be tried or punished for any offence other than that in respect of which he has been extradited: Oppenheim's International Law, 9 th ed Jennings and Watts (1992), vol 2, para 420; Whiteman, Digest of International Law, vol 6 (1968), p 1095 (and at 1100 on non-extraditable offences as aggravation).

Bell v Lever Bros Ltd
“
There are certain contracts expressed by the law to be contracts of the utmost good faith where material facts must be disclosed; if not the contract is voidable. Apart from special fiduciary relationships contracts for partnership and contracts of insurance are the leading instances. In such cases the duty does not arise out of contract; the duty of a person proposing an insurance arises before a contract is made; so of an intending partner.

Allen v Sir Alfred McAlpine & Sons Ltd
“
Now consider the position of the solicitors, J. H. Milner & Sons. The action charged them also with fraud and conspiracy fourteen years ago. That charge was kept hanging over their heads for four or five years. Then it was dropped. The Property Company still charges them with misconduct as solicitors and negligence. It is, I think, a grave injustice to professional men to have a charge of this kind outstanding for so long. It is impossible to have a fair trial after all this time.
