The court found the plaintiff failed to prove economic duress or that the defendant had knowledge of any pleaded financial distress; Ng's conduct amounted to lawful commercial persuasion, Eng's late and unparticularized allegations were disbelieved, and on credibility the defendant's version of terms and set-off was preferred; consequently the settlement was not vitiated and the plaintiff's claim was dismissed.
