ORAL JUDGMENT OF SAPOLU CJ

I have heard the evidence by the defendant Mr. Gaia Tuilaepa and the evidence by plaintiff Mr. David Perriman regarding the claim of $5000 by the defendant and I have come to the conclusion that the evidence by Mr. Perriman is to be accepted so that I will not make an award in favor of the defendant Mr. Tuilaepa of $5000 against the plaintiffs. 

I accept what Mr. Perriman said that the reason why this so called debt of about $5000 went away was because of the reason that he told the Court and not because of any work done by Mr. Tuilaepa. 

I give judgment for the defendant against the plaintiffs by consent in the sum of $797. 

Counsel to file submissions as to costs in 10 days.
