Facts of the Case

Background

The applicants, who are executive members of NASDAC (2nd respondent), approached the court urgently seeking to uplift their suspension as signatories to NASDAC's bank account with the 3rd respondent and remove a "no debit" caveat placed on the account. The suspension resulted from allegations of financial impropriety at a meeting held by the 1st respondent. The applicants claimed the funds in the account belonged to third parties including Hartzel High School workers who were to be paid from an out-of-court settlement.
