Facts of the Case
Background
The appellant sold property to the fourth and fifth respondents. The first and second respondents claimed a right of first refusal and obtained a provisional order setting aside the sale. The High Court confirmed this order. The Supreme Court found that the first and second respondents had only an option to purchase, not a right of first refusal, which they failed to exercise.
