The High Court upheld the Sessions Court: factual and expert evidence established meter tampering and inaccurate readings; internal TNB guidelines are not legally binding; no prior criminal conviction is required for civil recovery under the Act; the averaging method for back-billing was acceptable; defendant failed to rebut TNB's evidence; accordingly the appeal is dismissed with costs.
