The plaintiff claimed a commission of $8,080,000 from the defendants, alleging it introduced them to a mining company and provided confidential information pursuant to a confidentiality agreement.
The defendants moved for summary judgment to dismiss the claim.
The court found that the defendants and the mining company had already introduced themselves before the plaintiff's involvement, and the plaintiff only provided publicly available information.
The motion for summary judgment was granted, the action was dismissed against the moving defendants, and substantial indemnity costs were awarded to the defendants.
