Gillard v Hunter Wire Products Pty Ltd T/as Hunter Screen Products

The appeal concerned the assessment of past and future economic loss in a dispute between the applicant, Gillard, and the respondent, Hunter Wire Products Pty Ltd trading as Hunter Screen Products. The matter came before the court on appeal.

The primary legal issue before the court was the quantum of damages awarded for economic loss, specifically whether the assessment of past and future economic loss was appropriate.

The court allowed the appeal, indicating that the original assessment of economic loss was found to be wanting. While the specific reasoning for this determination is not detailed in the provided text, the allowance of the appeal signifies that the court found an error in the lower court's calculation or approach to economic loss. The court's final orders were to allow the appeal.
