The appellant landlord appealed a decision dismissing its appeal from a claims officer's ruling in a receivership proceeding.
The appellant argued the claims officer erred in characterizing certain assets as chattels rather than fixtures, improperly placed the burden of proof on the appellant, rejected expert evidence regarding how the assets were secured, and erred in assessing damages.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding no palpable and overriding error in the factual determination of chattels versus fixtures, and no error in principle regarding the burden of proof or damages assessment.
