  • Issue: Appeal against dismissal of application for oppression remedies under the Business Corporations Act.
  • Ruling: Appeal allowed in part. The chambers judge's dismissal upheld due to insufficient evidence for claimed reasonable expectations. However, the award for special costs was overturned.
  • Key Points:
    • The appellants failed to provide sufficient evidence to establish their reasonable expectations were violated.
    • The chambers judge did not err in her conclusions regarding the lack of evidence.
    • Special costs initially awarded due to perceived reckless indifference were overturned on appeal, replaced with ordinary costs.
  • Amount Awarded: No specific amount awarded; special costs order was replaced with an order for ordinary costs.
