Factory Farm Sale Dispute Reaches Christchurch Court
In Christchurch Supreme Court, the Public Trustee and Smith brothers sue Charles Jaine and Charles Harold Jaine for specific performance or damages over a Geraldine farm contract. Evidence shows misnaming and unclear ownership, with deposits and transfers to Jaine, who later placed the farm in his son’s name. The case hinges on whether Jaine was the buyer and if the contract can be enforced or damages awarded.
