THE HONG KONG SETTLERS HOUSING CORPORATION LIMITED (香港平民屋宇有限公司)

Plaintiff

LEE WAI LAN (李蕙蘭)

Defendant

Procedural Posture

Order 14 Summary Judgment (possession) / Application for Permission to Appeal and Stay of Execution (post Judgment)

  1. 1 Whether permission to appeal should be granted under s63A (reasonable prospects or other good reason)
  2. 2 Whether a stay of execution should be granted pending appeal
  3. 3 Whether the defendant has raised a bona fide triable defence under Order 14

Ratio Decidendi

The court refused permission to appeal because under s63A the proposed appeal had no reasonable prospect of success and the defendant failed to raise a bona fide triable defence under Order 14; the stay was refused because the appeal lacked reasonable prospects and vacant possession had already been returned, therefore the summary judgment stands and the defendant must pay the plaintiff's costs assessed summarily.

Court Disposition

Permission to appeal refused; application for stay of execution refused; earlier Order 14 summary judgment maintained; interim costs order made against defendant.

Orders

  • The defendant's application dated 29 December 2025 is dismissed.
  • Interim order that the defendant shall pay the plaintiff's legal costs to be assessed summarily.
