Bowie v Bhandari
In the case of Bowie v Bhandari dated May 23, 2023, it involved a past real estate dispute. The plaintiff, Janet Bowie, had entered an Agreement of Purchase and Sale with the defendants Ramesh Bhandari and Sudha Dhungana. The purchase price had been $1,080,000, with no conditions attached to the sale. Subsequently, the defendants had faced financing challenges due to the failure of their property sale. They had requested an extension of the closing date and a reduction of the purchase price with the plaintiff, but they had not reached any agreements. This had led to the Plaintiff declaring the Defendants in default for breach of the agreement. The plaintiff had then initiated legal action, and the defendants, acknowledging their breach, had not contested liability or the damages claimed. However, they had argued against granting summary judgment, and if granted, they had requested a stay of execution until related third- and fourth-party claims were resolved. The court had reached a decision and had ruled that Summary judgment was granted in favor of the Plaintiff for a total amount of $122,654.52, along with pre-judgment interest as per the Courts of Justice Act. Additionally, the Plaintiff had been awarded costs amounting to $12,500, inclusive of counsel fee, disbursements, and H.S.T. Furthermore, the deposit of $40,000, along with any accrued interest, had been released to the Plaintiff within 14 days from the date of that decision. This amount had been offset against the damages outlined in paragraph 36a.
