- HCMP2412/2008
The court found that the 2008 written Tenancy Agreement was a record of the existing oral tenancy and did not terminate or alter its essential terms; clauses 4 and 18 of the Provisional Agreement, read together, were satisfied by the written record; any obligation to transfer an increased deposit arose on completion and had not yet fallen due; therefore the defendant did not repudiate the Provisional Agreement and, on the contrary, the plaintiff was the wrongful repudiator and the defendant was entitled to forfeit the deposit pursuant to clause 7.
