Applying s.329 NLC and authorities (notably Lim Tee Hin and Lo Foi), the court found the plaintiff proved special losses by documentary evidence and that those losses were a reasonably foreseeable and direct consequence of the wrongful caveat; accordingly the court affirmed special damages of RM114,786.44 and awarded RM50,000 as general damages. The appeal against quantum was dismissed.
