- CACV247/2012
Summary judgment was properly entered and is affirmed: the losses claimed by Richly Bright flowing from the chain of sub-sales were within the reasonable contemplation of the parties and therefore recoverable; deposits paid may be taken into account in computing net loss even where formal forfeiture was not judicially declared; the 15% deposit was not unreasonably excessive in the commercial context; there was no maintenance or champerty; and completion by solicitors' undertakings was an intended and workable method of giving title.
