Dear all
I wonder if anyone can point me to cases or commentary considering
damages for late payment under an insurance policy and especially
cases or commentary criticizing Sprung v Royal Insurance. We say that
such damages are recoverable, subject to the criteria in Hadley v
Baxondale. I'm conscious that it has been reversed by Statute in the
UK but not in this jurisdiction (where its status is doubtful). I have
found a couple of NZ cases holding damages are recoverable. In
Australia the position seems to be less unequivical, though again I
have found some useful material.
Kind regards
Ger
