In the case of Gilford Motor Co Ltd v Horne (1933), the court addressed issues of breach of contract and the use of a company to evade contractual obligations. Horne, a former employee, set up a competing business in violation of a non-compete clause. The court ruled that Horne's actions were an attempt to circumvent the contract, and it granted an injunction against him. This case is significant for establishing the principle that individuals cannot use a company as a facade to avoid legal responsibilities.
