The trial judge was entitled to find on the evidence that the Lau family's occupation was permissive under a licence from the deceased (continued by his widow), that they lacked animus possidendi to defeat the legal title, and accordingly the plaintiff was entitled to possession; the Court of Appeal declined to disturb those findings and dismissed the appeal.
