Deed of assignment. Another discussion

[jon1965]

Ok so when an account is assigned according to Lord Denning apparently the debtor has the right to view the deed.
Van Lynn Developments v Pelias Construction Co Ltd 1968
Perceived wisdom however seems to be that it is a commercially sensitive document and the debtor has no rights to view it.

Has the ruling changed or does it still stand and if so how would you use it to your advantage. For example would you request it on receiving a NOA or would you request it as part of a defence?

On a connected point does the creditor have to prove that a NOA was sent or is it permissible to turn up to court with it

Or can you only request to see it if it is mentioned in POC?

In litigation they have to allow inspection

Pre action you can ask for inspection and if they come back with the usual dross of Its sensitive blah blah then refer them to Webster v Ridgeway [2009] ELR 439 and point out that sensitive shyte can be redacted!!!

Dam im giving away my arguments now
