Gayle Dunne won an appeal at the Court of Appeal on 30 January 2018 over cross-examination in an asset transfer case.

The court ruled that fair procedures required her lawyers to question Timothy Miltenberger, who acted for the trustee handling Sean Dunne’s US bankruptcy.

The appeal court also allowed official assignee Chris Lehane’s lawyers to question Ms Dunne’s US attorney, and sent the forum dispute back to the High Court. The underlying proceedings concern alleged transfers of assets, including a Cape Town hotel, under agreements from 2005 and 2008.
