Hong Kong Case Law

Affirmation/undertaking

    RE INTERLEGO AG

    Citation
    RE INTERLEGO AG
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMP709/1995

    No finding of contempt was made because the contempt application was not pursued after the company deleted "LEGO" from its name and gave undertakings; evidence suggested no continuing business or passing off and any non-compliance was at best a technical breach (non-filing of an affirmation) unlikely to justify full committal proceedings; accordingly the court exercised its discretion on costs and ordered the defendant company to pay half the costs on a party-and-party basis and made no order for costs against the individual directors.
