Key legal question
Whether the parties concluded an onerous contract for the C. feasibility study
Extracted holding
The appellant failed to prove an agreement that the feasibility study would be remunerated by the respondent.
Extracted reasoning
The study was carried out as part of a joint effort to convince the landowner, in a quasi-competition context; the trust principle did not justify inferring a duty for the respondent to pay, and the appellant bore the burden of proving remuneration.
