Senior lawyers at Morrison & Foerster (MoFo), Blackstone Chambers and Doughty Street Chambers have advised on the high-profile application to ensure anonymity for 104 current and former Barclays employees named in a Libor test case.
The High Court ruling last week saw Mr Justice Flaux find in favour of a challenge by four media organisations, including the Financial Times and the Telegraph Media Group, which argued that naming those involved was in the interest of the public.
Flaux said granting the individuals anonymity "would be an affront to the principle of open justice".
