Wallace and Another v Crossley and Another: CA 2 Nov 2005

The defendants sought leave to appeal against an order acknowledging a drainage easement over their land. The easement of drainage was subject to a condition that it did not come to be a nuisance. It was found so to have become.
Held: The allegations of bias in the judge were not made out: ‘there was nothing in the judge’s language that could possibly be said to evidence actual bias, or to have given rise to an appearance of bias from the point of view of a fair minded and informed observer, which is the relevant legal test.’
