Appellant
Respondent
Background: The case involved Alexandre Pavlov (Appellant/Defendant) appealing a judgment against him and Spektrum Glasses Ltd., stemming from the summary trial order that found him liable for $511,611.10 (US$381,198.83) under a personal guarantee related to a vendor-take-back loan in a commercial transaction.
Legal Issues: The legal challenge focused on whether the interpretation of the contracts (Share Purchase Agreement and related promissory note) by the trial judge was correct, specifically around the conditions and timing of payments. Pavlov argued that the matter was not suitable for summary judgment and that the judge erred in her interpretation.
Judgment: The Court of Appeal for British Columbia upheld the lower court’s decision, dismissing Pavlov’s appeal. The appellate court agreed that the trial judge had correctly interpreted the agreements and that Pavlov’s adjustments to the payment terms were unauthorized.
Costs/Awards: Alexandre Pavlov was held liable for the sum of $$511,611.10 (US$381,198.83) as stipulated under his personal guarantee. The costs of the appeal or any additional financial awards were not detailed in the provided document segments.
