Accounting records – Evidence – Liability for claim
The original dispute involved a claim for non-payment of services by a party which had managed work and the party it managed the work for. The key issue was the use and presentation of accounting records as evidence. Failure to disclose such documents when requested could be used as evidence of a claimant's case. However it was also necessary for the claimant to prove the requested documents actually existed.
