Savills estate agency has been ordered by a High Court judge to turn over emails from three of its directors concerning an ongoing legal battle between businessman Mark Holyoake and the billionaire developers the Candy brothers. The legal ruling requires disclosure of exchanges from Michael Sharpe-Neal, Ned Baring and Tim Whitmey. Holyoake alleges Sharpe-Neal and Baring passed on information via e-mail to the Candy brothers, enabling them to allegedly exert financial pressure on him over a $16m (£12m) loan. Savills, Holyoake and the Candy brothers all declined to comment.
