Facts of the Case

Background

The applicants, husband and wife, purchased two properties from the 1st respondent for US$27,200 but the 1st respondent could not transfer the properties as they had already been sold to another person. After obtaining judgment against the company which was not honoured, the applicants applied to pierce the corporate veil to hold the 2nd respondent personally liable.
