- High Court
The Court held each plaintiff incurred real mitigation expenses by hiring replacement vehicles from R2D and those expenses were reasonably incurred in the circumstances; defendants are liable to pay the full amounts invoiced by R2D to each plaintiff and interest as directed, and allegations that R2D lacked rights (subrogation/maintenance/champerty) or that plaintiffs suffered no loss because R2D bore the cost were rejected.
