    The High Court held that the trial judge was entitled to prefer one expert report over another as a legitimate exercise of judicial discretion, that the absence of fuller reasons did not demonstrate a material failure to evaluate the evidence, and therefore there was no basis for appellate interference with the quantum award; both the appeal and cross‑appeal were dismissed.
