The appellant appealed a trial judgment regarding the conversion of its customer relationships and equipment by the respondents.
The Court of Appeal found that the trial judge erred in determining the extent of the respondents' entitlement to compete based on a rescinded franchise agreement, and in finding that the appellant failed to mitigate its damages.
The Court allowed the appeal, set aside the trial judgment, and awarded the appellant $40,000 in damages for the conversion of its business relationships, plus costs.
