Overview

• Staveley is accused of failing to repay a loan of more than £35 million to Victor Restis, a claim she disputes in court.
• The legal dispute centers around a £10 million investment made by Restis in Staveley's business ventures in 2008, with allegations of duress and misrepresentation.
• Interest on the claimed debt has ballooned to £31.3 million, accruing at £505,000 per day, according to Staveley's lawyers.
• Staveley's legal team argues the case should go to arbitration and accuses Restis of threats of physical violence, which he denies.
• The case, which has significant implications for Staveley's financial stability and ownership stake in Newcastle United, will resume on March 19.
