    SUN HING GINZA LTD v. CHAN KAI YAN AND OTHERS

    Citation
    [2023] HKCFI 2410
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA1357/2012

    The court exercised case management discretion under Order 38 r 4A to permit the expert report prepared for HCA 1357 to be used in HCA 2498 because it was relevant to a common central issue (availability of funds for dividends) and fairness required access to that opinion; to mitigate any prejudice the court granted D125 leave to adduce responsive expert evidence and directed the parties to agree a generous timetable for the production of expert reports, meetings and a joint report; costs of the argument reserved.
