- Court of First Instance
- Case number
- HCMP2680/2003
The motion was granted because the court accepted the point on appeal was difficult and complex, there was no direct Hong Kong authority on the issue, the assistance of a specialist in English companies law was justified to resolve conflicting English authorities and develop local jurisprudence on s168A, and admitting the foreign QC was not contrary to the public interest despite the Bar Association's objections.
