    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA3135/1984

    The judge found the documentary record and witness evidence established that both parties knew and intended the contract as written; the defendant's later claim of mistake was rejected because conduct (requests for extensions and lack of contemporaneous protest) and internal communications demonstrated agreement, therefore the written contract was enforceable and plaintiff was entitled to the claimed sum with interest.
