Rampal v. Aujla Derry Investments Inc.

The appeal was dismissed because the application judge's factual findings—that the appellant failed to execute the APS or pay the deposit and that respondents provided sufficient communications culminating in the return of the deposit and a formal repudiation—were not shown to be erroneous; the Reservation Agreement contained no requirement for reasonable notice and the appellant failed to properly raise the new ground below or in the appeal factum, making the challenge unfair and untenable.

MacIntyre v. Delaney

The appeal was dismissed because the appellate court found no error of law: the adjudicator's factual and credibility determinations that periodic flooding constituted a latent defect undiscoverable on reasonable inspection were supported by the evidence (including the vendor's note and the buyer's testimony), the building inspection did not put the buyer on notice of recurring flooding, caveat emptor did not relieve the vendor of disclosure obligations for latent defects, and the damages award (after 50% betterment deduction) and costs were properly assessed.
