Court

District Court
Case number

DCCJ5174/2005

There are sufficient common questions of law and fact between this District Court action and HCA 2134/2005, and the commonality in issues, evidence and corporate control makes it desirable for both actions to be disposed of by the same court; accordingly the District Court ordered transfer under s.42 to enable the Court of First Instance to consider consolidation.

Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCA9151/1982

The court granted the application permitting Mr. Antony Lo and Great Eagle Company Limited to advance funds to meet the guarantee obligations because the proposed loan was a legitimate asset‑preserving manoeuvre, there was no real substance to the plaintiffs' resistance on the urgent facts presented, and counsel's statements were sufficient for an urgent determination subject to remedies if inaccurate.
