Subject: Re: New Flamenco

In a sense the case was slightly easier than most, because the causal link between breach and gain was very weak. OK: the owners sold in disgust when the charterers threw up the charter. But they could equally well have sold for a capital sum during the charter. Ships don't have the same premium for vacant possession that houses do.

Important UKSC decision on mitigation/incidental benefits

I had thought the CA were right, but the UKSC clearly disagrees. Am a bit surprised, but I'm marking and haven't the time to think about it properly.

Views?
