The claimant had assembled a database of addresses within the UK from several sources, including some which had in turn obtained their data from the defendant. The defendant’s terms for supplying such information were said to restrain such re-use. The claimant alleged procurement by the defendant of a breach of its contract with the Land Registry.
Held: Some claims were established, but the defendant succeeded on a sufficient number of elements to be seen as the overall victor.
