Summary
A partner sought liquidation of an unregistered poultry partnership. The co-partner admitted signing the agreement but argued the money was a gift, offered no evidence and declined the oath. The court held the partnership established and ordered liquidation through a chartered accountant; the Court of Appeal upheld the judgment.
Principle
A party who pleads the opposite of what the claimant proved, such as that money was a gift, must prove that plea; failing that, judgment follows what was proven.
