The Court dismissed the application for leave to appeal: in the commercial and arm's‑length context the liquidators' permission to install roller shutters, the payment and return of a renovation deposit did not amount to an assurance that the 1st defendant would obtain exclusive use and possession of the Subject Wall free of charge and binding against future owners; the judge correctly found absence of the requisite assurance, reliance and detriment and there was no reasonable prospect of success.
