The appellant appealed a trial judgment awarding him $21,000 for breach of contract and $32,000 in costs, seeking increased damages, punitive damages, and damages for assault.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal, finding no palpable and overriding error in the trial judge's assessment of damages or refusal to award damages for a technical assault and alleged fraud.
Costs of the appeal were awarded to the respondents and set off against the costs previously awarded to the appellant.
