Contract – Condition. The claimant dentist appealed against the judge's decision that the defendant was entitled to terminate their contract. The Court of Appeal, Civil Division, in dismissing the claimant's appeal, held that the circumstances had not required a fresh notice of termination and that the word 'reasonable' in the contract should not be read in a restricted Wednesbury sense. The claimant was to be confined to his contractual, private law remedies and he had failed to show any goodwill as constituting a possession within the meaning of art 1 of Protocol 1 to the European Convention on Human Rights.
