Peter Cooper

Judgment in the case of Peter Cooper and Robert Rans, as Trustees of the Norwood Bermuda Trust, vs. Patricia Haycock and Gregory Haycock, as Trustees of the Bayside Trust, at The Court of Appeal for Bermuda.

A decision on whether to sue some of Bermuda's most influential local businessmen for millions of dollars, stemming from the collapse of Bermuda Fire & Marine Insurance, is expected to be made over the next couple of months. At stake is over $100 million owed to creditors of Bermuda Fire & Marine Insurance and the credibility of Bermuda's regulatory and legal system in relation to protecting the rights of foreigners doing business with Bermuda-based insurers and reinsurers.
