Cramaso LLP v Ogilvie-Grant, Earl of Seafield
[2014] UKSC 9
Key Principle
A pre-contractual representation is treated as continuing until the contract is concluded; where the representor becomes aware that the representation has become false before the representee enters the contract, the representor must correct it, and the representee can rely on the (now-uncorrected) representation even if the contracting party (here an LLP) was not yet in existence at the time of the original statement.
Area of Law
Contract — pre-contractual misrepresentation — continuing representations
