1. This action is about the ownership of sawboards. The amount in issue is of the order of $150,000. It is most regrettable that this dispute has required eight witnesses and three days of court time to resolve and that the parties could not agree to an amicable settlement, preferring to incur substantial costs which are wholly disproportionate to the amount at stake.
