    Citation
    WANG DIN SHIN v. NINA KUNG
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCAP8/1999

    Recusal was refused because the application was belated, unsupported by evidence and materially different from the 2001 circumstances; the adjournment/stay was dismissed because the questionnaires are a legitimate exercise of the Administrators' duty to identify and preserve estate assets and to assist estate duty determination; costs were awarded against the defendant, including indemnity costs for the improper recusal application; the questionnaire summons was adjourned to allow the defendant to file evidence but with costs against her.
