 STATE BANK v SWISS BANK (1995)
Swiss Bank on the other hand claimed that State Bank of New South Wales had not acted on the faith of the receipt and knew or should have known that the funds were paid to it as principal.
State Bank of New South Wales challenged this conclusion on the ground that the message showed that the payment was to be credited to the TOS account which was mainly used for transactions for customers.
He said that Swiss Bank’s submission that until judgment State Bank of New South Wales did not have to borrow to repay the principal or lose the earnings from that sum at Australian interest rates, assumed that State Bank of New South Wales’ position was to be judged on that basis.

The master refused to grant a stay or suspension of the possession order as he did not consider that the conditions of s.36 Administration of Justice Act 1970 had been satisfied, particularly that H "was likely to be able within a reasonable period to pay any sums due under the mortgage".

The Court found for the defendant because the Bank knew or ought to have known that Mr Sullivan was not informed about the serious financial state of the company, including the amount of its indebtedness and the significant risk he was incurring by giving a guarantee and a mortgage to secure the company’s debt.
His lack of information about the proposed transaction was held to amount to a special disability or disadvantage which would make it unconscionable for the bank to procure or accept the defendant’s consent to the mortgage.
There was a verdict for the solicitor in the second cross-claim on the basis that he did not owe any duty to the bank beyond a duty to exercise reasonable care in giving the certificate of witness.
