Court found petitioner lacked deployable assets and means to fund legal costs, there was no firm arrangement allowing funding by charging the outcome and legal aid was unlikely to provide the required two-counsel certificate; respondent has adequate resources. It was therefore fair and reasonable to order interim contribution to petitioner's future legal costs up to the FDR. The court awarded respondent monthly payments of HKD45,000 from 12 October 2014 to 12 January 2015 and made a nisi order for respondent to pay petitioner's costs of the application.
