Supreme Court rejects hypothetical scenario establishment for breach of contract damages and sets evidentiary standards.
Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the request to establish a hypothetical sequence of events regarding breach of contract damages. The applicant argued that specific factual scenarios were necessary to determine liability, while the respondent contended that the court should rely on existing evidence. The court ruled that establishing hypothetical facts exceeds the scope of judicial review and that the burden of proof remains on the party claiming damages based on proven circumstances.
