The Court of Appeal held that the appellants bore the legal/persuasive burden to prove the deed of assignment was genuine; the respondent discharged the evidential burden by demonstrating cogent reasons to doubt authenticity (false recitals, false evidence by appellants, commercial improbability, changed case), the appellants failed to discharge the persuasive burden, and therefore the deed was not genuine and the shareholding remained subject to the respondent's charge; appeal dismissed.
