Signed judgment

1. Having heard both parties, the Court finds that Owen did not comply with the contract, but only to the extent that the chairs were not delivered because he closed the shop earlier than expected. Although he sent a message, he did so only in the final hour. The Court understands that matters of this nature occur regularly between parties in the markets. It asked Leanne whether she had suffered any specific loss as a result of the breach. Leanne stated that she had suffered no losses beyond anxiety about her payment. 2. Owen states that the chairs are ready and that he can deliver them as soon as possible. Having regard to the principles of loss to the plaintiff and fairness to the defendant, the Court finds that neither party suffered significant damage as a result of the breach and that no remedy is required. The plaintiff did not seek the enforcement of a specific penalty against the defendant. The Court therefore orders Owen to deliver the chairs to Leanne at her residential address, at his own expense, as soon as possible. 3. This matter is dismissed.
