The defendants appealed a Master's decision to grant and not discharge a Certificate of Pending Litigation (CPL) against Ms. Tan's property.
The appeal grounds included alleged failure of full disclosure, misrepresentation of facts, and lack of a reasonable claim to an interest in the property by the plaintiffs.
The court, applying the standard of review for Master's decisions (palpable and overriding error for factual findings, error of law/wrong principles for discretionary decisions), found no such error.
The Master properly determined there was a triable issue regarding the plaintiffs' claim to an interest in the property and that the plaintiffs did not fail to make full disclosure or misrepresent material facts.
The appeal was dismissed, and the respondents/plaintiffs were awarded costs.
