AI summary
The High Court considered an application for summary judgment arising from a claim for damages based on an alleged breach of a Merchant Agreement. The Court found that the respondent had raised triable issues, including locus standi, waiver, the amendment of pleadings, and the quantification of the claim, and dismissed the application while granting leave to defend.
This appears to concern summary judgment procedure and contractual disputes in a matter involving university and student accommodation funding arrangements.
Evidence from source
I find that the respondent’s special plea is unsustainable because the cession agreement is not confined to an enrichment claim.
Supports: background to the locus standi dispute
I find that the facts presented by the respondent raise triable issues, and the application for summary judgment is therefore inappropriate.
