Facts
A house in Kamloops, British Columbia had insufficient foundations which were discovered upon inspection by the city. Stop work orders were issued but not enforced. The house was sold to the Neilsens. On discovering the construction deficiencies, the Neilsens sued the city for negligent performance of inspection. The vendor of the house, Hughes, assumed liability as well. 75% of the liability was delegated to Hughes and 25% was given to the city.

Famous quotes containing the word facts:
““Now what I want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of service to them.””
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“The history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations ... all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
