Citation

[2025] HKCFI 1480
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCA189/2025

Leave to appeal was refused because the application was founded on a misconceived premise (a clerically approved draft order did not change the court's manifest oral decision), the plaintiff offered no authorities to support its position, the application had no reasonable prospect of success and there were no reasons in the interests of justice to grant leave; issues of alleged breach of natural justice are left to the Court of Appeal to determine if pursued.

CHEN HONGQING v. LIU YIU KEUNG STEPHEN AND OTHERS

Citation

[2019] HKCFI 2720
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCA1699/2019

Applying the balance of fairness test the court provisionally found the plaintiff's conduct amounted to an abuse or risked multiplicity of proceedings (parallel cases with the same cause of action against different defendants) and that necessary parties had not been joined; on that basis the balance of fairness was against granting interim interim relief and the relief was refused.

CHINA SHANSHUI CEMENT GROUP LTD AND OTHERS v. ZHANG CAIKUI AND OTHERS

Citation

[2018] HKCA 409
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CAMP58/2018

Leave to appeal was refused because plaintiffs failed to show sufficiently cogent reasons to interfere with shareholders' voting rights; the first-instance judge’s provisional evaluative assessment of the merits in the urgent interim interim context was not plainly wrong; given the short lifespan and high discretion in interim interim relief, the Court would not disturb the judge’s decision and plaintiffs had alternative routes to raise issues at the substantive receivership hearing.
