Griffiths v TUI
- FOIL
This appeal raised the question of whether and if so, in what circumstances, the court could evaluate and reject what was described as an "uncontroverted" expert's report. The question arose in the context of a claim in respect of gastric illness allegedly suffered as a result of consuming contaminated food or drink whilst staying at a hotel in Turkey on an all-inclusive package holiday provided by the appellant/defendant, TUI (UK) Limited ("TUI"). The respondent/claimant suffered a serious gastric illness whilst on holiday in 2014, the symptoms of which persisted after his return home. He made a claim in contract and pursuant to the Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992.
