The court held that the claimed bill of HK$226,845.34 was excessive because several items were unnecessary or disproportionate to a Part II application arising from the settled actions; applying proportionality and the common fund basis the proper assessment is HK$120,000 and solicitors are bound by their undertaking not to charge the applicant beyond that amount.
