    Citation
    SIMPLE SYMBOL LTD v. MCS LTD
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA2882/2000

    The court dismissed the defendant's appeal because material factual disputes existed about whether the seller had validly reserved a right of disposal (so property remained with plaintiff) and about the factual matrix establishing a contract of carriage or agency; those disputes could not be resolved appropriately on an O.14A summary determination or by striking out, therefore the Master's order dismissing the defendant's summons was upheld.
