Abstract:
This case deals with several aspects of the general principles of contract, the influence of the constitutional values of dignity and equality as regards public policy on the validity of contracts, error, cancellation of contracts and the unethical conduct of an attorney who found himself in a conflict of interests situation. The matter was brought by way of application. This is probably the reason that not all possible remedies available to the applicants were properly explored or ventilated. Although the outcome of the case is probably correct, one cannot help but feel that the applicants were afforded minimum justice in the circumstances of the case.
