The summons was dismissed because it was brought very late after the pre-trial review, was poorly drafted with no specific question or nominated experts, failed to explain the 17-month delay since disclosure, risked delaying the fixed trial date and prejudicing the defendant; accordingly the court refused to give expert directions and awarded indemnity costs of HK$35,000 against the plaintiff.
