…claim dismissed!
So was the outcome of a recent hearing in respect of a claim by a former friend and colleague (favourable status now revoked) against one of our service and repair garage members alleging breach of contract arising from repair services provided to the Claimant.
Under cross-examination, it was apparent the Claimant had made assumptions that our member’s work was faulty, even though he might have known better and had no real evidence to suggest the extant problems with his vehicle were in any way related to the repairs that had been undertaken on his behalf by our member.
Further, it was submitted on behalf of our member that evidence given from a third party should be limited to zero weight since it was not substantiated.
As for quantum, being the amount of damages sought by the Claimant if his claim was successful, it was further submitted these were not recoverable losses in any event.
Suffice it to say, the judge took no great time and little persuasion to determine that on the facts, the Claimant was unable to satisfy the burden of proof and duly dismissed his claim.
