Citation

[2025] HKDC 1849
Court

District Court
Case number

DCCJ2024/2022

The insuring clause's unambiguous use of "any Employee" must be given its ordinary and natural meaning, covering all employees including the injured driver; any ambiguity is resolved contra proferentem against the insurer and the schedule does not restrict the insuring clause, therefore the Policy covered the defendant's liability to the driver.

Citation

KONG COLIN CHUNG PING AND ANOTHER v. KONG WING ON AND OTHERS
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCMP2045/2012

The tenancy agreements were void and unenforceable because at the testator's death they lacked an ascertainable commencement date and therefore were incomplete agreements that could not be validated by the defendant's unilateral posthumous insertion of a commencement date; the documents did not satisfy CPO s3/s4 and evidence to imply the missing term was inadmissible or insufficient; the Chan affirmation was not admitted and joint privilege was not established.
