Uzinterimpex JSC v Standard Bank plc
Court of Appeal
“In a claim in conversion for wrongful interference with goods, the claimant’s failure to mitigate the loss was a new intervening cause, breaking the link between the original wrongdoing and and the continuing loss, which released the wrongdoer from liability for subsequent loss after that failure.”
