The court refused the application for additional remuneration to Fionne Choy because the Will had already fixed remuneration and the executors failed to discharge the onus of showing that the fixed amount was inadequate or that special circumstances existed; similarly, costs of the PRC proceedings could not be allowed out of the estate because the executors failed to produce pre-litigation advice and full disclosure necessary to show the litigation was reasonably and properly brought, and the court would not have authorised those proceedings on the material before it.
