EDPI PTY. LIMITED v. RAPDOCS PTY. LIMITED & ANOR [2005] NSWSC 644

EDPI PTY. LIMITED v. RAPDOCS PTY. LIMITED & ANOR [2005] NSWSC 644

The cross-claim concedes that, even if successful, EDPI retains a share in Lot 3; no serious issue is established to justify continuation of the caveat. The balance of convenience favours removal of the caveat to permit EDPI to use the property for financing, and there is no compelling evidence or argument warranting continuing the caveat.
