This appeal concerns whether an insurer's subrogated claim can be pursued in the name of an English-domiciled motorist in an English court alongside his uninsured-loss claim against a Hungarian insurer for a 2018 road accident in Germany. The judge below held the English court had no jurisdiction over the subrogated (insurer's) element and stayed that part of the proceedings, while permitting an appeal. Permission to appeal was granted.
