Facts: A developer employed an excavator to remove soil from the land but the developer went into liquidation so the dirt was left there. Later, a heavy rain storm caused damage to a neighbour’s property because there was no retainer. The neighbour sued in nuisance. The excavator argued they were not liable as they were not in possession.
