520 _aDiscusses two recent rights to light cases. In "Tamares (Vincent Square) Ltd v Fairpoint Properties (Vincent Square) Ltd" ([2006] EWHC 3589 (Ch), L136179, [2007] EWHC 212 (Ch), L136793) the court applied the rule in "Shelfer v City of London Electric Lighting Co Ltd" ([1895] 1 Ch 287) and concluded it would be oppressive to grant an injunction, and awarded damages of £50 000, just below 30% of the developer's profits. In "Regan v Paul Properties Ltd" ([2006] EWCA Civ 1319, L135566), an injunction was granted by the CA as the developer had taken a risk in continuing after Regan's complaint, even though it had received incorrect advice.
