Interpretation of subcontract and drawings

    CS v. HKR

    Citation
    [2025] HKCFI 611
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCCT72/2024

    Leave to appeal granted on Question 1 because it is reasonably arguable the tribunal erred in law by treating the issue as factual without properly considering the Subcontract provisions and drawings; leave granted on the double recovery issue (Question 3) because if the Award permits double recovery it is a legal error outside the range of correct answers; leave refused on Questions 2 and 4 because the Arbitrator's technical valuation and rejection of delay were matters of judgment within his expertise and not obviously wrong as matters of law.
