Kilmartin SCI (Hulton House) Ltd v Safeway Stores: ChD 27 Jan 2006

The claimant sought specific performance of an agreement by the defendant to take a lease of premises. The defendant disputed the areas to be let saying it did not meet the criteria agreed.
Held: The expert had had difficulties in measuring the area. He had purported to provide measurement which he said was fair between the parties. He had been employed to measure the area and no more. However even so, the measurement exceeded the minumum area to be provided and the claim for specific performance succeeded.
