Facts of the Case
Background
The applicants obtained a judgment on 24 September 2009 declaring their mining claims valid. The first respondent later discovered that the subsidiary companies named as claim holders did not exist at the time of registration of the claims, and that the area was reserved against prospecting. The court granted rescission of the original judgment.
