On sale of the property R paid A their share but refused to pay K on the grounds that "there was every prospect" of a higher price having been achieved but for K`s breach of contract and negligence claiming that they had held the price down, renamed the property unfavourably and failed to achieve the agreed Country Life advertisement deadline.
