    Applicant proved by clear documentary evidence (Land Registry memorials, Approval of Succession, statutory declaration and certified death entry) that he is the beneficial owner of the half shares, that those shares were held by his mother as trustee who died intestate without a personal representative, and therefore the court was justified under section 45(e) of the Trustee Ordinance to vest the legal title of the half shares in the Applicant absolutely.
