- CACV190/2008
Given the 13th Respondent's apparent impecuniosity (a $1 company with no other assets), the arguable cost exposure and the reasonable estimate of appeal costs at HK$1,000,000 (for competent local counsel), the court ordered security for costs of HK$1,000,000 to be lodged or guaranteed by a specified date, stayed proceedings until lodgment, and provided for dismissal and costs consequences on default.
