DCCJ1865/2008

Dismissal of the Plaintiff's summary judgment application because conflicting contemporaneous documents and unresolved factual disputes—principally whether the Defendant received HK$112,045 and the potential interest of a co‑named insured (YSH)—establish a real triable issue of fact so summary judgment is inappropriate.

CHUI MAN KWAN v. BANK OF CHINA GROUP INSURANCE CO LTD AND ANOTHER
Court

District Court
Case number

DCMP211/2008

Memorandum B in the Tugu policy is a non-contribution/excess clause that operates to make Tugu liable only for amounts not recoverable under other insurance; therefore Tugu had no obligation to contribute to Bank of China's claim until Bank of China had been called upon and had paid in full, and Bank of China's contribution claim was dismissed.
