711 Hogben Pty Ltd v Tadros – Variation and Slip Rule Application [2022] NSWSC 1568

The Court found the original quantum judgment had accounted for all relevant elements, including tenants' liability for rent and outgoings. No inadvertent slip was made in calculating damages. The landlord is not entitled to a reduction or credit, as the full loss (including rental) was part of the damages arising from the landlord's breach. The application was dismissed.
