If you are involved in a court case about a trustee's investment that did not go well, the court can look at the whole situation. You might have lost money on one investment, but made money on another. The court can decide to balance the loss against the gain. This means the court can subtract the loss from the gain, so you do not lose as much money. The court has this power, and it does not affect any other powers the court has to balance losses against other things.

The court's power to balance losses and gains is part of the law, and you can find similar rules in other laws, such as s 13Q of a previous law. You can look at how the court makes decisions in these situations to understand how it works. The court's main goal is to make a fair decision based on the circumstances.
